  • What was your 1st car?

    Mine was a 57 Chevy,2 door sedan, with a 283,3speed on the floor, when I was 15.I paid $100.00 down and owed $100.00 more.
    Drove it 25 miles home and it started popping and jerking and dying.
    I was working at a Gulf station and my boss checked it and it had a cracked block.
    My boss got me another 283 from Spicer and Gaylords(junkyard) and told me I had to do it myself.Started Fri. night and got done Sun. afternoon.
    Me and a friend took off and drove 50 miles round trip and burned 5 quarts of oil.
    We had all the windows open and it looked like the car was on fire.

    My boss got me another engine and that one was good.

            79 'yota pickup. NO exhaust, floorboards rusted through (the seat fell through the floor), broken frame, no reverse. Piece of ****. Bought it in '89.

                My first car was an '88 Pontiac Bonneville. We called her "The Bone". She was a great car, a total beast! I sold The Bone with 192,000 miles on her to another kid for his first car.

                              I learned to drive in a '84 Caprice Wagon, but my own first car was a '90 Acura Integra GS. Did a lot of work to her (converted to 5-spd transmission, redid suspension, lightened her up) and was going to turn her into a race car but decided to sell her and get an affordable RWD sports car instead. Hence why I got a Camaro. I kind of regret getting the Camaro and giving up on the Integra race project...

                                Went ahead and moved my starter wire from the back, to the front again since it had no effect on my drain on the battery. Also made me nervous driving...

                                At the end of Part Three, we changed the valvetrain of the 3.8-liter V6 in the Tom Henry RS. We installed new, Yella Terra "Ultralite" 1.8:1, aluminum roller rocker arms, Katech valve springs and Katech titanium retainers on our 3800 Series II V6.
                                Ultralites are nearly 25% lighter than the stock 1.6 rockers and 8% lighter than the SLP aluminum...
