Your first car

Recommended Posts

Hey Shamus they were all great cars, I got a bit lucky in my earlier years working in a menswear store straight out of school & was recruited by an Insurance Company to sell Insurance, it seems I was a natural salesman as I was able to buy a house & a GT Falcon - no yachts or overseas travel, just spent it all on women, wine & song. 🤪

My first car was a 1961 Morris Major.  You needed a sense of humour to own a Morris Major as this video demonstrates.   The sound system I installed was literally worth more than the car.

I had a Stanza SSS, very similar to this one, kick ass stereo in it too ( tape player 😂😂

Mullet, Stanza, Van Halen, Stone Wash Jeans, I was all set in the 80,s.

This was around the time my old man was home brewing in the garage and I would help him,  great days 😃

Similar to my old 1948? Hillman. Was 17 when I bought it in NZ.

Heavy as, but reliable too. Once collapsed a cylinder on a trip from Napier to Gisborne over some very steep hills (known as "mountains" in Oz) got me home with just a bit of smoke in the cabin.
