Cars My Family and I Have Owned. This was my first car, a 62 Ford Fairlane. It had a 260 with a 3 speed column shifter. And this is what happens when you have a leaking wheel cylinder and it saturates your brake shoes (sanding the shoes doesn't help). It constantly pulled to the Left. One day I wasn't paying attention and went across the road into a ditch and hit a culvert pipe at around 50 mph. Broke my nose on the steering wheel and broke the windshield with my head. This was my first new vehicle, an 89 Toyota 4x4. Ended up trading it in after I rebuilding the transmission and Engine. This is my oldest brothers Impala. He stuck a racing motor in it and spent most of his time tuning the thing. Ended up trading it to a friend who ran it at the drag strip and went through a few rear ends. I ordered this truck out of Oakland using the fleet department. The color was Wedgwood blue, in certain light it either looked black, blue, or purple. Drove real nice and loved all the room in the cab, but couldn't afford the gas bill. Another shot of my 1999 f-250 super duty.
