A 2005 Chevy Trailblazer. I got it for such a good price, it was practically given away!

85 Buick Skylark POS

Used to slip out of gear when cornering quickly, also engine stalled sometimes when I came to a stop. So glad when I got rid of that one.

My first automobile

Post by Lee Anders »

For sure I'll date myself by doing this - but - my first car was a 1949 Buick Dynaflow, 4 Door, Straight 6, with Auto Transmission. I was 17 yrs old, in service, home on leave, and discovered this car, 8 years old at the time, sitting in grown up bushes, behind an old neighborhood service station. The owner sold it to me for $125. - towed it up front, put gas in it and charged the battery.

I drove it back and forth beween Memphis, TN and Ft Bragg, NC, for about 18 months, without ever raising the hood, until it finally threw a rod this side of Asheville, NC. Big black wonderful highway cruiser!
