First was a 1963 Volkswagen bus
You might be thinking something along these lines:
However it was more rust than paint. The rear compartment was lacking a floor - long rusted out, the solid roof leaked and it only had the front seats... basically springs will pillows tied on covered with a blanket.
It only cost me $50. What she lacked in looks she more than made up for in go power.
My currently vehicle (owned solely by me) is the 1977 GMC suburban.
Again you may be thinking something nice and cherry. Nope, its flat painted what I call brown (the partner insists its taupe), jacked up slightly, with great towing capacity. I ripped out the back seats and built a false floor, I haul all of my tools and can haul lumber, dry wall, plywood on top.
My dream car? That would be a horse. I only drive because its a modern necessity.
