Folks, I learned to drive in a 1951 Plymouth about 1970 ... my father bought it new and I still have it in a field. It had normal theee on the tree manual transmission. My mother mostly, drove that car until probably almost 1980 ... she love hated that car.
The first car that I bought was probably another Plymouth that I bought for parts that ended up in a field. It probably cost $20. T.he first car that I bought and drove was a 1963 VW bus that started life as a dry cleaner delivery van. I paid $50 about 1970 and probably spent $50 rebuilding it with mostly used parts. An airplane mechanic helped me build the first engine. This started a mini career for Buying VW Cars cheap with bad engines, rebuilding them and reselling.... in the 70s and 80s we ran a print shop and VW repair shop ... I have probably rebuilt 100 vw engines .... then I switched to Peugeot’s in 1985 and drove and drove and fixed them for almost 20 years until I bought a 300td which I am barely driving at this point.
