I didn’t have a car in high school (city kid) but I dreamed about owning that first car. And the summer after graduation I went to California for six months.
I didn’t get my dream car, but the gas crisis was on.
Used car dealers couldn’t give away the big engined luxury cars no matter how much they discounted them.
So instead of getting my dream car – a Mustang, I ended up buying a ’67 Thunderbird with suicide doors.
It was Southern California so no worries about rust.
I had to sell it before coming back to Canada because the import duties were three times what I paid for the car.
I still haven’t bought my dream car – a Mustang, but I often daydream about it.
What was your dream car when you were in high school?
