My first car was a 1982 Datsun 200sx which was a hand-me-down from my dad. A lot like this one except mine was red:
Then for college I had a 1993 Toyota Tercel, except mine didn't have that bar on the front (or the dents):
We called it the turtle
It sadly met it's demise with someone who thought they could cross 4 lanes of traffic before I got there - they almost made it...
