MY FIRST CAR WAS LIKE THE GREEN DART PICTURED, ONLY A DARKER GREEN, I DON'T HAVE ANY PICTURES OF MINE THOUGH.
SO THE PICTURE OF THE GREEN DART & THE CHEVELLE & THE OLDSMOBILE WERE THE FAKES, WE REALLY DID HAVE CARS THE SAME MAKE AND YEAR AS THOSE, THE CHEVELLE WAS REAL ROUGH THOUGH, BUT WE DIDN'T HAVE ANY PICTURES OF OUR ACTUAL CARS. THE VOLARE WAGON, WELL THE WOOD GRAIN ON IT WAS GETTING PRETTY RATTY LOOKING, SO MOM HAD THE GREAT IDEA TO BUY WOOD GRAIN LOOK CONTACT PAPER AND PUT THAT ON IT, SO THAT IS WHAT WE DID, IT WAS A TON OF HARD WORK, BUT THE END RESULT AFTER WE GOT IT ALL DONE, IT LOOKED GOOD.
MOM'S FIRST CAR WAS THE AUDI, IT WAS REALLY HER FAMILY CAR, BUT WHEN SHE STARTED DRIVING THAT IS THE CAR SHE WOULD DRIVE.
WE HAD THE BLUE DART & THE CHARGER WHEN WE FIRST GOT MARRIED. THE DART WAS WHITE WHEN I BOUGHT IT, BUT AFTER I GOT HIT 2 WEEKS AFTER BUYING IT, I PAINTED IT BLUE.
YEP, THE BAJA BUG I BUILT AND PAINTED YOU KIDS WANTED TO CALL KERMITT BECAUSE IT LOOKED LIKE A FROG.
MOM LEARNED TO DRIVE A STICK (IF YOU COULD CALL IT THAT, IT WAS A 3 SPEED ON THE TREE), IN THE BLUE DART, SHE HATED TO DRIVE IT THOUGH, SO SHE REALLY LEARNED, WHEN I BOUGHT HER THE CAPRI.
YOU WERE ALL RIGHT THE NOVA MOBIL WAS THE ONE WITH THE SONG, I DIDN'T EVEN KNOW YOU KIDS AND MOM HAD A SONG ABOUT IT FOR A LONG TIME.
HEATHER YOU LEARNED TO DRIVE IN THE SUBURBAN (BIG TRUCK-LITTLE GIRL) PEOPLE WERE ALWAYS AMAZED ABOUT THAT. HOLLIE YOU DID LEARN IN HEATHER'S TOYOTA. NICK YOU DID LEARN MOSTLY IN MOM'S DODGE TRUCK AND SOME IN THE CHEVY Z71. MOM WAS THE ONE WHO TOOK YOU GUYS OUT THE MOST, TO TEACH YOU. YOU GUYS MADE ME NERVOUS, AND THEN I GUESS I WOULD MAKE YOU NERVOUS.
MY ALL TIME FAVORITE VEHICLES MY 69 EL CAMINO SS, AND MY CHEVY Z71. I WISH I STILL HAD ALOT OF MY CARS BUT IF I COULD PICK JUST ONE, IT WOULD BE THE EL CAMINO. MOM'S FAVORITES, HER DODGE TRUCK SHE HAS NOW, HER CHARGER, MY CHARGER AND THE NOVA. IF SHE COULD HAVE ONE CAR STILL SHE COULDN'T CHOOSE BETWEEN HER NOVA AND MY CHARGER.
IT WAS OUR BUICK LA SABRE THAT WAS POSSESED. IT ALL STARTED THAT SUMMER WE TOOK OUR FAMILY TRIP TO DISNEYLAND, AND THEN TO MEET GRANDPA & GRANDMA MARTIN IN LAUGHLIN NEVADA. WE ALL HAD TO RIDE HOME WITH GRANDPA & GRANDMA MARTIN IN POP'S EL CAMINO, BECAUSE THE CAR BROKE DOWN IN LAKE HAVASU, THEN GRANDPA AND I DROVE BACK TO TOW IT HOME. HE WAS ALWAYS THERE WHEN I NEEDED HIM.
I HAVE HAD IN EXCESS OF FIFTY VEHICLES, AFTER FIFTY I HAVE EVEN LOST COUNT.
I DO LOVE VEHICLES.

Man, we all drove back home in an El Camino? That must've been one crowded ride! It's funny because back when we had the nova I didn't think it was all that special. I was never embarrassed or anything, I just didn't think it was that cool, but now seeing it again, it was AWESOME! You had A LOT of neat cars. Fun post!
YEAH, THE NOVA WAS A COOL CAR, IT HAD THE POTENTIAL TO BE A REALLY AWESOME CAR!
MOM TYPES MOST OF THIS STUFF FOR ME, BECAUSE I USE THE HUNT & PECK METHOD, BUT SHE TYPED GRANDPA'S EL CAMINO, IT WAS REALLY A FORD RANGER, STILL A SMALL TRUCK, IT HAD A CAMPER SHELL ON IT. IT WAS A BIT CROWDED, BUT WHEN WE WERE WITH GRANDPA & GRANDMA, THAT STUFF NEVER REALLY SEEMED TO MATTER, THEY ARE AWESOME PEOPLE, AND MADE EVERYTHING FUN.
I can't believe you can remember all those cars, but at times you can't remember what you did yesterday! ha ha ha! Too bad you don't still have a lot of those cars, huh?
