My 56 Ford Fairlane Club Sedan - My First Car (circa 1982)
This is a scanned photo of my first car...or at least the first one that I bought with my own money. It's a 1956 Ford Fairlane Club Sedan that I paid $800 for in 1981 when I was only 14. Of course I didn't get to drive it until I turned 15 and got my learner's permit. I drove it my Junior year and part of my Senior year of high school, until I bought something more "dependable". I sold it a couple of years later. I would like to have it back.
I saw it a few years ago at a local cruise in. It had passed through a couple of owners since me. It had been repainted the light blue color all over. I think the tu-tone suited it more.
*The wrinkles in the photo came from me carrying the photo in my pocket for a while after selling it, just to show folks the hotrod that I used to own. :)
