My son's first car was a '78 Bonneville. He beat the crap out of it, wrecked it a couple of times and bought for himself what he really wanted when he joined the Navy.
Funny, he's nostalgic about the Bonneville now and says he wouldn't mind having another.

I gave my son a rust free 75 GV with a 455 that I saved from derby guys years ago, but it’s not going to be his daily driver.
My son works and saved his money so he bought 94 4wd Dakota 3.9 V6 with a 5 speed off my wife’s family. It’ll need a clutch and some front end work, but it’ll be perfect as he needs a truck to take his motor cross and 4 wheeler out to all the off road parks down here.
Hopefully we’ll be hauling it up from Texas by spring.
