No pics handy, but mines was a '64 Barracuda, gold with gold interior. 273 4speed. Sure wish I would have never got rid of that car!
 
A 71 Demon, the 318 was so worn I had to keep a case of oil in the truck. I got about a quart to a tank of gas! But it got me hooked.

My first car technically was a 1956 Chevy Bel-air project car I bought off my uncle for 10 dollars when I was 14 But it took a long time to finish.....
My first daily driver I bought when I was 16 and built it over the summer and started driving it right away and began surfing Junk Yards for parts. Took a while to finish it though. It was a 1973 Duster with a 440. Was my favorite car, planned on keeping it forever until some drunk bonehead T-boned it and it was a total loss.
