Savage Husker Posted February 9, 2017 Share Posted February 9, 2017 A silver 1986 Chevrolet Classic Caprice with a soft top. Front row bench seating, it was a freakin boat. Where I grew up we had a road everyone called the Roller Coaster Rd, one direction was more downhill than the other and as you went through a gully the street had many dips here and there where the concrete sank. I would coast at 25mph at the top of the road and peak at about 45-50mph before the end, often bumping our heads on the roof because of the dips. The suspension had gotten pretty bad by my senior year of high school and being such a long car it would make those dips even more prevelant, but also the tail end would bottom out and shoot sparks at night haha. The brakes were also really sensitive until the car warmed up. Before I replaced the suspension, I would let the car lurch and pump the brakes, creating a rocking back and forth making it appear as though I had hydraulics...a couple girls actually asked if it was hydraulics, unfortunately both of them were dating good friends 1 Quote Link to comment
knapplc Posted February 9, 2017 Share Posted February 9, 2017 My first car was my mom's old car, a 1972 Plymouth Scamp with a 318 v8. It had cotter pins (we called them boat locks) on the front hood. Blinker signals were on the front corners of the car. It was black and white and looked really similar to this car, but with a different front end and hub caps. http://www.curbsideclassic.com/curbside-classics-american/curbside-classic-1972-plymouth-scamp-a-tasty-little-number/ I drove this car for a year until I rolled it in a ditch/field when I lost control going 80+ on gravel. Sold the engine for more than the car was worth, so that wasn't a terrible result, but I would rather have the car than the money. Quote Link to comment

Apathy Posted February 10, 2017 Share Posted February 10, 2017 1989 Chevy Caprice Classic It was a great solid car that my buddies called the boat that brought us joy while going mudding, paint balling, stereo system, dates, etc. Sadly an illegal immigrant w/ no license and insurance sideswiped the whole passenger side of the car totally it.....what a douche 2 Quote Link to comment
