This model 1965 Rambler American was a family car (rather than "Jeff's car"), but it was my ride to high school every day. That worked out OK, as it regularly overheated during the Alabama summers, but was OK in the winter.

I lived in New York and Boston for 11 years (college, law school and first job), so my first car as an adult came at age 30, this model Alfa Romeo Spider (1981). Would love to have this one back!!

: Loved that car :) I'd forgotten it had those white trim lines in

: them.
