Chevrolet Chevette used by the driving school. I paid the school two hours lesson and two hours driving test at the DMV.  Got my license with a perfect 100. I did have driver training at school though.

Oh yes I remember........I attended high school here in SoCal (Huntington Beach H.S.) this was in 1963, the school had about 4or5 white 1963 Rambler 4dr cars white, bucket seat interior, for Saturday all day driver training. When they were drawing straws for the 3 students per car. I guess I lucked out and was chosen with 2 other students for training in.........ready for this a pink 1959 Ford base model with 6 cyl. 3 on the tree, dual steering. All in all it really wasn't that bad.  Thanks,   Al

You get used to whatever is common. I learned in my brother's 72 Fargo and my Dad's 71 Chrysler. You just drove them, they didn't seem big at all. My Dad made me drive the Fargo because it had a sure grip and we did lots of skid and drift practice on snow and ice with it. He made sure I could handle an emergency situation when one came up.

We definately need to get together this year. Corona possibly.

SoCal in Buena Park.
1978 in a white 69 Rambler with 232-6. Beat the crap out of that thing and it never stopped. Beat as in air under all 4 wheels on numerous occasions.
Front bench seats on it would lay flat. As a teen plenty of thoughts but no realizations... :looney:
Traded "up" to a Pinto. :stop:

This makes me feel so young....

1997 Mazda 626. In Ontario there was Two tests a road test to get your G-2 then a test to get your full G. Both were done with the same car.

Amazed I passed really. My in class instructor was this grouchy old guy that clearly lost everything in divorce, his name was Rod. He smoked non stop, never ate just drank coffee and did nothing but complain about how he has to teach young morons to drive because his ex took him for everything. Then my in car lessons were no better. We had a Russian or Eastern European guy who would do nothing but argue with his wife over the phone. He didn't care what we did or where we went as long as we were back at the driving school by the time our lesson ended. It was more of a life lesson than a driving lesson lol.

I used my Dads 85' El Camino because it was an automatic.  It caused me problems because I was not familiar with it since I had usually been practicing on my Step Dads 86' Dodge Lancer 2.2 turbo with a 5 spd.  I still passed.  I immediately went back in line at the DMV to get my motorcycle temps.  Then I went home to ride my 82'GPz 550 that I had sitting in the garage waiting for me.

I was given the opportunity to take my driver's test in our family car, which was a 1971 Dodge Crestwood station wagon. Complete with faded wood panels on the sides.

I just remember being told go as fast as you can through these cones that were set up. Are you kidding me?? This thing handles like a yacht. I took my time. I also nailed the 3 point turn around. I was pretty stoked, I have to tell you.   :banana:

The same car I passed my test in!

I don't remember the exact year as the car wasn't mine, but it was an early 80's Dodge Charger, and it was silver IIRC.

It was a friend of my Mom's that she worked with at a local restaurant and she was SMOKING hot, lol (she was about 3 years older than me).
