I'm sure it was you EZ! Iron Butterfly - one hit wonders!
I remember the old 8 tracks. After a while they would get warped or the tape would get stuck in the player! Our version of the Ipod!
Mine was an '85 Lebaron convertible that my dad bought used when I was a senior in high school to convince me to live at home and commute to college. He sure knew how to motivate me! I've had a convertible of some sort ever since!
Mine was a 1990 Honda CRX Si (modified with a racing clutch). I bought it when I was 16 and DH and I sold it when I was 22. A little black car with no air conditioning in the desert is pretty miserable. It was a fun, fast little thing though. I didn't care at the time ('cause gas was $1.15/gallon) but it got close to 40mpg.
Flem (yes, we named him that after our accident in Flemington, NJ prom weekend) was a 1994 Olds Cutlass Ciera grandpa car that I inherited in 1999 who sadly died in 2004.
I had to pay to get him removed. He was a good car--had lots of memories and kicked a** in the snow. I fondly remember parking him many a times to come back to 2 other grandpa olds in the same blue/grey parked next to him. *sigh* I loved that car. I didn't love when the steering and transmition went at the same time.
A 1968 (or 1969) Javelin. It was my aunt's and my dad bought it from her in the late 70s for my sister. They got it back up and running for me in 1987!
Only an AM radio. But, we could pack the people in!
Lots of great memories with that car---my sister driving us around and loading it up in the summers to go to the lake to me & my friends running around my junior and senior year.
I still remember the morning I had to drive my dad to work. I started up the jav and the radio starts BLASTING Def Leppard's "Pour SOme Sugar on Me"!
My parents still have it parked in a lot they own. Would love to be able to get it up and running again.
a 1988 red manual shift, manual windows Ford Festiva, a little box with no a/c I kept it for 5 years, couldn't make my daughter suffer, had to have a/c
I'm so old Anne I actually had a 4 track!
