  • 1973 Datsun 710, red.

  • I think I like this game. Should it be a list?

  • FIAT 126 Bis, gray. (The first car I used to drive. I never owned a car.)

    March 17, 2010

  • Encore!

  • 1970 VW Thing. The perfect car for a young jackass like myself, because it couldn't go over 50 mph. Here I am driving it.

    March 17, 2010

  • Okay. I guess I need to make a list. I'll try, but I might need some back-up...

    March 17, 2010

  • Oh John. You so sexy. :)

    March 17, 2010

  • That's a gorgeous car. Looks like something out of a matchbox.

  • Ok, so that's not me, but I really did have one of those when I was 16, which I bought for $400. You could fold down the roof, flip down the windshield, take off the doors, and remove all the seats--it was like driving a bedframe with a lawnmower engine strapped on. I loved that car. Drove it until big chunks of the exhaust system started falling off and it wouldn't pass inspection.

  • I love it when chunks of car fall off. You just know you've finally gotten your money's worth.

    March 17, 2010

  • That car sounds friggin' awesome!

  • The back bumper of my Datsun "fell off" when I went to Europe for the summer and my brother drove my "dottie" while I was gone. That was the beginning of the end for old dottie.

  • Speaking of driving bedframes, I once knew a woman who drove her ailing car even after the seats came loose. She took out the front seats, strapped in a lawn chair for the driver's side, and just kept going.

    To this day, I wonder why she never got pulled over.

    March 18, 2010

  • Excellent! Though I thought that as vehicles, lawn chairs were more traditionally tied to bunches of balloons.

  • 1964 Ford Falcon, $150. I still have the bill of sale.

  • John: Well, she was a bit of a rebel.
