1988 Eagle Premier LX. Burgundy on burgundy cloth, almost fully loaded. Hardly ever ran, but still rode very good, better than the Bville. Was given to me, then my dad gave it to the junkyard, in mint condition. Still sits in the back of the junkyard, untouched and forgotten.

Well my FIRST car was one of these (NOTE-not this exact one)



Mine was an '89, slate blue/grey. Was my mothers' and had sat in the yard unregisterred for a year before I started driving, by the time I got her she was rusting out underneath but still ran strong. for the 20 days I ran her with the temp plates I called her the "General Grant". had the big whip antena on the trunk Bandit style. I think I spent more time bombing through the woods then I did driving her on the road

Since the Fith Ave didn't last long though I consider my first car to by my 95 S10, 2wd with the 2.2 I have pictures some where. Had minor mods on her, just enough to teach the 4 banger ricers a lesson or two, God I miss drifting in that thing :(

My wife'* first car was a 90something T-bird with the 5.0, was a sweet car. She got in too much trouble with it though. I don't want to post anything prohibited on this site, but there was this one time involving 3 Statetroopers and a helicopter
