High School Cars
 

A buddy and I were talking aboutt he cars we drove throughout high school. It was funny the odd cars that we remembered. This was triggered by driving by the high school and seeing beemers and hummers.....kinda sad. So lets here about or see what you drove through high school(or for you old guys, the name of the mule you rode). :r

I drove a 1972 Chrylser New Yorker. Yes, it was f'in huge. We fit 10 people in there comfortably.......and two in the back VERY comfortably. It had a 440ci v-3 with a 3 speed auto tranny. For weighing the size of a third world country, it would getup and go. Sadly, I am selling it due to no time to work on it.

Growing up in Europe, I didn't have my first car until I was out of college! In fact, I didn't have a DL until I was out of college- and only got it then because my job was as a traveling salesman! Boy, having a car sure gives you freedom! That's probably why all the leftists want to make it so difficult to own/drive one!

A 69 Chevy Nova and a 450 Ducati Desmo motorcycle were my means of getting around in high school. :D

Mine, however, was not nearly this nice. Baby Crap Brown with a rainbow stripe down the side.

I did love that car.:D

I'll never forget in economics class in college how they said that when they tried to sell this in Mexico the name precluded success!

Re: High School Cars
 

I had a 1970 GTO, wish I still had that car..

Re: High School Cars
 

People drove in High school? My parents told me that what a vicious rumor!

Re: High School Cars
 

A 1993 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme. All the ladies loved it.

Re: High School Cars
 

I drove a 1977 Datsun 280Z, that I had to push start to get off campus at lunch time. Here is a pic of one similar. It had an in-line 6 cylinder engine, and rear wheel drive. This car was a blast! Mine was the same color, but not as nice...

Re: High School Cars
 

1971 Plymouth Duster....

originally Forest Green, I repainted it "Metro Toronto Police Yellow" with a black pin stripe.

This picture isn't it.... but a reasonable facsimile...

Re: High School Cars
 

I had a 1968 Camaro in High school. I had so much fun in that car with 6 heads in it.
Still have it in my parents garage.

Re: High School Cars
 

I had a '77 Buick LeSabre 2 door... haven't thought about that car in years.... :)

Re: High School Cars
 

Back in CA, in those days, I was driving a '72 Maverick......

Come by the house here in NC, and I will take you for a spin around the neighborhood....Yes, I STILL have it, and yes, I STILL drive it!


;)

Re: High School Cars
 

1969 RS Camaro

350 ci, 3 speed automatic transmission, 3:31 rearend
Grey/silver in color with black houndstooth cloth interior.

My dad kept it for me when he bought it in 1974. I was born in 69 so it always had a special link to me. I drove it from 15 years old to 19, when I finally gave it up during college. The 8 mpg was hard ot afford. It still sits under the barn at my parents. It needs some work. For a cool $8-10K, I could have a dream car. One day!

Oh the good times in that ride!

I started college with a '70 Chevy Impala with a bored out engine. Later, I bought a '76 Ford Maverick that I kept until 1993.
