    My first car was a 73 Mercury Comet GT Fastback with a 302. Like the old
    Falcons, I could open the hood and sit IN the engine bay to work on the engine.

    My first car was a '53 Chevy Bel Air, four door sedan.
    It had been owned, literally, by a little old lady, who drove it a bit
    more than just to church.
    And it was loaded, for 1953. PS, PB, automatic, heater, radio, etc. It
    also had a sun visor. Just don't stop too short of a red light or you
    couldn't see it. Vacuum wipers that barely moved when going slow, but went faster the faster one was going. Sol
    Had to sell that when I went into the Navy.
    Then my '65 Falcon which I had for 12 years. The only extras on it were
    a heater and radio. Great car.
