What vehicle should I fix up to be my first car?
I'm about to turn 16 and get my drivers license. I wanted other peoples opinions on what vehicle I should fix up. I have a choice between a '74 Chevy C10 with a '72 front clip, a 78 Chevy camaro and a 87 Ford dump truck. They are all in bad shape but have straight, un-crashed bodies. I've been leaning towards the camaro because it is in the best shape, actually runs over and has the most power. But I have my doubts because I want something able to haul stuff around. I will probably fix up two, but which should be first?
You sound pretty confident in your mechanic skills. Take the first one you can get, but the Camaro is the worst out of them- all of them are gas hogs.
Buy a little Honda or Toyota… No wait, get the dump truck, that makes the most sense.
THE, C10
NONE OF THE ABOVE. For you FIRST car, buy something you can pay cash for, that doesn't need fixed up.
All of the Vehicles are My father's. They have been sitting around the property ever since I can remember. I don't have to buy any of them.
- What car should I get for my first car? I'm 16 and about to buy my first car. I'm thinking about getting a 94 Ford Ranger (120k miles) with lifted suspension, off road tires, and a prerunner bumper. Would this be a reliable car throughout my high school years? Should I get that or should I just get a 2 door coupe?
- Is a face lift for a vehicle a new generation for a vehicle? I heard that in 1989 Ford Ranger received a facelift but was a new generation or just a minor update that did not change the complete model of the vehicle?
- Do you think a Ford Ranger would be good for me? (first vehicle)? I'm 17 and have 3000 saved up to buy a vehicle. I was looking at a 4.0L V6 Ford Ranger. Do you think that engine can support a dirt bike or a quad (not at the same time) in the bed or is that pushing it. Should I go with a F-150? I only want a truck so I can put my dirt bike/quad in the back and got o my friends house and ride.
- Which car should I get as a first car? Ford fusion 06 or 07 model? Or chevy avalanche 2002 z71. And last Mazda 6 04, 05 & 07. The newer the higher the price for each model(not by much). I'm a fan of each car and model style, so really want to know which last longer, cheaper maintenance and good car for a college boy.
