Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire First car-truck you drove ?

Probably a 63 Ford pickup.

Dad would get us started about 4 or so. Couldn't reach the pedals or shift....but could steer while he pitched bales.



First truck would have been an early 60's Ford Cabover.

First I drove was a '47 Chevy Coup, First I actually bought myself was a '61 DeSoto Adventurer with quite a few in-between.

Grandpa's 1928 Ford. Better than a go cart. Couldn't hardly see or reach pedals, but managed to not hit anything. Quite a treat for a 8-9 year old kid.

Would have been around 1966 or so.

I knew that was coming when i first read the title. I just couldnt figure out who.

63 GMC 3/4 Ton with a V-6 and 4 on the floor. It was
GrandDad’s Ranch Truck. I’d drive along in “granny” low gear
at age 6 as he threw hay bales out to our cows.
Was already driving a tractor by then too.

I used that fugger like a skateboard

Get it going pushing it, then drop one knee in it.

That, or i'd set my skinny ass in the bed and ride in it down hill


I feel sorry for all the dudes on here that had to milk cows or tend the worm farm at 5am. I had it made.

1961 Chevy Impala, 283.

1963 Chevy Impala, 283.

First drove and passed the license driving test in our 37 Hudson Terraplane, in 1954. Bought my first car in 1955, a 1948 Chev Coupe.

LOL ! Reminds me of that Joe Diffie song

1953 International pickup belonged to a neighbor we would cruise the back roads drinking wild Irish rose when I was about 15 years old.

The first thing with an engine that I ever drove was a 60 ton, M-48 tank. Lousy MPG but boy could it go! No beep beep, BLAM!

First thing I ever really 'drove' was a bulldozer.....

I took driver training in a 74 Chevy Nova.

The first car I drove regularly was my Dad's 75 Buick Estate Wagon.

The first car that I had to myself was my Grandfather's 67 Buick Electra 225. I only had it for a couple of months-- sold it when I went off to college.

The first car I ever owned was a 78 Black Buick Regal.

'32 Model B Ford pickup with utility bed.

First car I drove was Mom's Ford Country Squire station wagon. That thing was a barge but with a 460 under the hood it was surprisingly fast.

First car I bought was a 71 Mustang. Baby blue with a 302 and an 8 track. Pussy mobile.

The first car I drove was my mother's 1959 Oldsmobile 88. She let me drive from her cousin's place in "the country" to the main highway, about 15 miles. I was only 15 (1961).

My first car was a 1953 Pontiac convertible the neighbors gave me. Flathead straight 8, power top, Indian head on the hood lit up with the headlights. I sold that, and got another freebie, a 1953 Ford two door, black and white. It had another flathead, this one a V-8, with Fordomatic. Sold that and bought a 1957 Studebaker Silver Hawk, 289 Studebaker V-8 with a two barrel, Borg Warner automatic. That car went pretty good! I have had lots of other cars when I was young. The best was my 1963 Chevy Impala SS 327 250 hp four speed. The worst probably was the 1964 SS convertible 409 I traded the 327 for. Two four barrels, hot cam, 4 mpg. But it was pretty!

Memories....and then there were motorcycles....

1970s Dodge Aspen

First thing was a "C" Allis-Chalmers tractor. First vehicle was my grandfathers 1955 Chevy car.
