The first cars I remember were a huge pink mid-50's Cadillac (my father's actually), a 1959 mint green Rambler (I thought the thing was so huge and then I saw another one at a Antique Nash Rambler American Car show...and y'know, it was!) and a 1964 Buick Rivera that was a prototype for the '65 Gran Sport. Owned by a priest in the Air Force until he was killed in an accident and the Church didn't want the car.

>A long long time ago I drove a Chevy Vega and a Ford Pinto. :o) A big car is a rambler. My family had two rambler station wagons when I was young.
