Do you remember your first car?

My first car,lots of adventures i had in that one!

My first car was a 1981 Chevy Caprice. I bought it second hand in 1989 and if I do say so myself, I kept it in pretty good nick.

 

This is a photo of it taken in 2003, admittedly after having recently had it re-sprayed and having fitted new tyres.

A 1936  Ford 8 horsepower, registration JU 9779.  The windscreen wound out, the doors opened forward and the windscreen wipers worked of a vacuum tank  that you had to re-charge by taking your foot off the accelerator when going up a hill.  It had a chassis and wooden floorboards you could remove to get to work underneath.

Only three forward gears.

I spent many a happy hour stripping the engine and lapping in the valves, side vale of course.

 

That was followed by a Ford Prefect E93A sit up and beg, and a Ford Consul Mk 1 with a bench front seat and column change.

 

Happy memories
