What was the car you learned to drive?
'76 International Scout Traveller.
Not a pic of our actual car but same color and messed up front quarter.
Dad bought this new in '76. This thing was a tank and could go just about anywhere. Hated it when I was 16 and took my test in it in '87. But I really came to love it. It could take me and about 10 of my closest friends lots of places. Wish I still had it.

Learned to drive on a 5 speed, it was not a formula or GT, just a 2M4.

I learned to drive on a custom made car. I was 9 years old and we built a Mini sized car out of a Crosley for me (which was already a tiny car). It was a tiny overhead cam 4 cylinder with three speed trans and air type wheel barrow tires, diamond plate fenders and the original cable brakes! It had no real body, so was more like a mini car with no body.
1959 was a stellar year for me, as I also got a D2 Caterpillar and a Honda step through 50cc motorbike! I was one happy 9 yr old!
