When I was about seven years old my dad bought a red 1961 Catalina. It was just a base model, plain jane four door sedan, but I still thought it was the greatest (it was a big step up from the '53 Chevy he had previously.) My own first car happened to also be a '61 Catalina that was identical to the one my dad had, the same color combination and everything. I eventually went through a few red '61 Bonnevilles, until I got the hardtop I still own today. However, if I had a choice I'd go for a red '61 Ventura with a bucket seat interior.
