First car? An early sixties Volkswagen Beetle. An early model that powered the windshield washer by connecting it to the air nozzle of the spare tire. As you used the washer, the air pressure in your spare tire went down. Hard to believe but true.

I traded a Suzuki X6 Hustler for it even up. Had it all through college and then some. Best trade I ever made.
