Oh yeah, don't be jealous! It was dark maroon, and in order to actually GO after stopping at a stop sign..I'd have to floor it...and after about 5 seconds...it would go, HAHA. I had it for almost 2 years, and I bought it myself...my parents NEVER bought me anything like that haha.<BR/> <BR/>It used to quit on me when I'd slow down to take a turn...so I had several times I was stranded by the local graveyard..

I had my Greenpeace, Peta and Amnesty International stickers on the back bumper. I distinctly remember putting a kitchen knife in the tape player for one reason or another. That car taught me how to eat, smoke and drive a stick shift all at the same time!<BR/><BR/>I love that the ceiling material in your car fell. My friend had a car like that...hilarious!Carnealianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04438541010027037499noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6006953.post-1124148693615976042005-08-15T18:31:00.000-05:002005-08-15T18:31:00.000-05:00I love your blog...

My first car was a 1971 Dodge Dart - metallic green. It had vinyl seats that I covered with beach towels because, you know what? They burned my legs in the heat during the summer!<BR/><BR/>It had over a 175K miles on it since it was my parents car before I got a hold of it. It didn't have FM radio or a cassette player until much later on in my possession of it. The knob on the drivers side window fell off and exposed a three inch long screw - which one day when I was in a hurry - I sliced my knee open with. I still have the scar.<BR/><BR/>I bought a newer car (a 1985 Pontiac SunFire) when the headlights on the Dart kept going out. I'd be driving home late at night and all of a sudden, no lights. Very scary! It happened to me probably about 3 times, and then one night it happened when my parents had borrowed the car for a short trip. They drove me to a dealership the next day. <BR/><BR/>Great entry and question!Cindyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00150067289957912243noreply@blogger.com
