My first vehicle as a '60 Chevy shortbed Fleetside pickup, with a 235 six banger and three-on-the-tree. It was slow, sturdy, and a POS by any standards. It was Seafoam green, and the oak bed in rotting out, though pretty slowly. I drove it for a year, then sold it and bought a '73 Plymouth Duster, which had a slant-six and would run pretty good, though everything else was falling apart. It was a POS, too. Then I got a Datsun pickup, which was slow, sturdy, and a lot of fun to drive. It rode pretty rough, though.
I guess I never got over that Datsun, I'm on my fifth one, now.
