Thread: Your First Car!

I bought a 46 Ford V-8 2dr Sedan used in 55 for a whole $60.( about two weeks of work) I used that much oil in the next 6 months till the holes in pistons wouldn't allow the engine to start. The thing of the day was a chrome sun visor over the windshield and the tail dragging on the ground, Fender skirts were "in" for the back wheels. I sold it for $65 to another kid that had a Mercury V-8 to put in it. He did and that is history.
JC Whitney and Warshawsky were the go to places for parts. They had two different street addresses in the same building I heard. Stock numbers seemed the same for the parts.
