My first car was a 1961 Ford Starliner (2-door hardtop), bought her in 1967 (at age 17) for $600.00 that I had saved up working at the local Ford dealership since 1964. Mine was an all white exterior with turquoise interior
I had her till 1972 when I traded her in (to pay the sales tax) on a 1967 Mercedes 230S 4 on the column with a full width front bench seat.
Had many a good time with both of them.
