My first ride was a 71' Vega Wagon. Had so much rust you could actually see the front tires when you opened the hood.
The Vega wasn't so much a car, as a joke played on the buying public by G.M., the only car I would actually categorize as a step down from a Pinto. An AMC Hornet was considered classy by comparison.
It was a good car to take to the drive-in though, because the backseat folded down and I had the side and back windows blacked out (that was a teenagers window tint in 1977).
Ahhhh youth.
