Your first car

So I’m going through some boxes of stuff I’ve accumulated over the years, and found a picture of the first car I ever purchased taken at my dads house probably in 1979 or 1980.
I don’t remember taking the pic, but sure was surprised when I found it.
Paid $1000 for it in 79 and sold it in 83 or 84 for $1400. This is the one that got me hooked.
It would be interesting to see other members first cars.
