Your very first loan...What was it for?

1971 Chevy Monte Carlo. Pops loaned me $700 to buy it. I sold my 55 PU that I had restored that I dropped a small block 350 into to repay him. I can kick myself in the huevos a million times over for selling that truck. I had a 56 2 door Bel Air I was restoring at the time and used the balance of the loot having the paint and chrome done. Sold that one too. F me in the ear. I had a 73 J40 Land Cruiser I totally decked out with 36s and a big block I sold. Again, huevo kick with a steel toed boot deserved. I have a 56 Caddy I fully restored. Dropped in a 500 CI 73 Eldorado engine and transmission. Fully bagged. $25,000 paint and lacquer job. I will NEVER sell this one.
 
Hi,

In 1975 I bought my first big boy amplifier. I took out a loan to buy a $600 Fender Bassman 100 with a huge 4x12 speaker cabinet. It didn't even fit in my car. Couldn't close the trunk, half of it hung out when it was loaded. :LOL:

Your past history of possessing fine rides one minute then letting them go the next mirrors my past to a tee. What were we thinking?
 
A brand new straight off the showroom 1975 Pontiac Formula 400 dark blue/light blue interior auto. In 1975 I was an E-4 in the USCG living aboard my first ship at the time. Barely making the payments. A year later met my first wife couldn't manage newly married life and a child on the way...and you already know the rest of the story.
