A hand-me-down red 1986 Nissan Sentra with manual everything including the tranny. I couldn't keep the chicks off me

My first car was 24 years old, a 1967 model. Now, my current commuter car is 24 years old. Weird.

Id been working on it with my dad since i was about 8 years old Great first car. Finally sold it to a restorer with 250k+ miles on it (estimated. Odo quit working at 217k).

22.5.....winner winner!

A 1984 sumthing sumthing 4 cylinder manual.
A buddy and I wired in 16(!) speakers that I rescued from curbside trash.
Turning on the amplifier would make the windows rattle.
Eventually it would just about break 100mph on what were probably 10-11 inch rims.

While true, if you answer such questions with personalized answers you may speak freely. First vehicle- Jeep. Now for when used for verification, it’s what I called it between 4 letter tirades when things weren’t going well. In the cyber age you bring up a great point, but it can be used as an added benefit for even stronger protection with a hacker using the wrong answer.
