Pass my Test

[Hedgehog]

Ford Popular 103e I passed my test in one of these .... What car did you pass your Test in

 

[Nort]

1974 Mercury Comet. Mine was beige.

 

[Rico]

VW Golf 1 ... and it was that shitty beige colour too

 

[Buckykatt]

My Dads 72 Catalina except his was brown

 

[Gunner]

1965 Impala.
Wasn't nearly as pretty as this one though.

It had a 283 engine that looked the size of a peanut when you opened the hood.

In a way you were lucky Rico. Parallel parking was a b*tch in that bad boy.

Best part, the back seat. It was like a full size sofa

Those big motors make mine look like a Dinky Toy

My first vehicle was a Nissan E20 camper, bought it in Fremantle, Western Australia. Cost me $1700, drove it to Cairns and sold it for $2000. She was a beaut!
Not mine in the pic.

Took drivers ed in high school. Yes, it was a thing back in the day.
This beauty is a '62 Ford Fairlane. Probably a piece of junk but I
was really excited about it.
Yes, I had to parallel park this little beastie and even managed it on the first try.

Here I found one on the web.
A Fiat 600, light blue, just like this one.

 

[Panzer Lehr]

Took me a few tries to pass ... not easy to parallel park our family station wagon.

 

[StoneAge]

Holden Gemini little brother to the Holden Torana (You also got a free Kangaroo when you purchased one)

 

[A Canadian Cat]

A 1976 Volvo 245
Not a picture of my dad's actual car but looks pretty much the same - we didn't have that elaborate a roof rack but we did have one.

 

[Nathangun]

I drove one of these when I was learning.
1989 VOLKSWAGEN LT 31 LWB 2.4 DIESEL VAN

 

[mTk]

Learning to be a bus driver?

 

[Meat Grinder]

Chevy Chevette, quite possibly the biggest POS ever made, with the Ford Escort contending.




Did I pass the test? Yes I did.

 

[Meat Grinder]

You ever think about buying another one, fully restored?

 

[Rico]

You ever think about buying another one, fully restored?

No, not really.

 

[Stafford]

1974 Holden HJ Kingswood, 202 cu.in straight 6, 3 on the tree. Very similar colour too.

Chevy Chevette, quite possibly the biggest POS ever made, with the Ford Escort contending.

The Chrysler K car has to be a contender too. Ours was that really gross mint green. It was a major come down from the Volvo but hey it was free from family so there is that.
