While my first car was a hand-me-down from my parents, a mint-green '85 Toyota Tercel hatchback, technically my first car was a '50 Chevy Coupe. I bought it when I turned 16 with grand plans to fix it up, but then realized how incredibly expensive that is to do on what was a 40+ year old car, especially when you know next to nothing about cars. I did get to drive it around the block a few times (man, what a boat), it had a Powerglide automatic transmission. Was lucky enough to sell it for what I paid for it years later.

I also later had a car just about like the one in the French Connection, same color and all, except, I am sure, without the beefed up engine:

very nice-Is that a 68 Formula 400?
I remember my dad taking me with to (then) Jay Pontiac (in Bedford?) when he traded in his 65 Galaxie 500 to buy himself a brand new blue 67 Firebird.

Best car I ever owned was a V-8 '67 Mustang. Loved that car.
I currently own a 2014 Mercedes CLA 250, metallic black, brown leather seats and all. It's right up there with and outperforms the Mustang with its turbo 4 cy.
Worst came with my wife, a '64 Chevy Corvair. Fortunately I kept the better of the two.

nice work - I remember, his had a 326 also - (chevs 327 counterpart)

thanks for the memories!
never a better era than the late 60's for a tough car, sleepers included from any of the big 3!
dad ended up getting the firebird over (first) the camaro then the mustang...
he wasnt a chrysler guy

I had a 65 mustang, 69 Mach 1 but never got a 69 BOSS but thought about it got it's Chevrolet counterpart the 69 Camara Z-28 (both made originally for class C Trans Am racing circuit).
Never could get into a car with a chicken on the hood. But it's choice that made the 60s era American muscle car the best ever!

Football is in a down period but it's always favorite car time......any more?
Bought two modes of transportation when I got back from Vietnam, a 71 Toyota Corona with an AT in it that could probably beat any tortoise alive at that time. Let's just say getting up to interstate speed from an on ramp was a challenge.
And the other was a Honda CB 350 motorcycle. Now the dealer tried to sell me a 500cc squared off clunky looking thing "on sale" for just a few hundred $$s more, but in 1971 I had never heard the name BMW. When I told my German brother in law about buying the Honda over the BMW on sale I thought he was gonna kill me. He personally educated me as to what I had passed up.

Texas license has changed from Conceal Carry to License to Carry which allows both concealed and open carry. Same exact qualifying rules for both and class covers it all since the rules are a bit different for whichever way you carry it here. I have actually rarely ever seen anyone carry it open other than in gun shops.
That picture looks like the old west has just changed the horse power out.
