I know what you mean. My first was a metallic blue 66 Mustang 6cyl 3spd coupe with the sprint package(I still have the wire wheel hubcaps). My dad and I bought it for $2000 in August of 1967. Over the next two years, I broke every gear in the T96 transmission and put various dents in all four corners. A wet highway, and a 65 Galaxie making a panic stop in front of me ended her life. She was gone, but she did introduce me to my bride, and we were married for 45 years.
Awesome story jsmangis, they do bring back memories of great rides, cheap gas and simpler times...
