My first car, LOL I paid $550 for it, if I remember correctly. Got over 150K miles out of it before I traded it in...by the time I traded it in, it no longer went in reverse, LOL I moved an entire college dorm room worth of crap back and forth in that car many times over. You'd be amazed what you can pack into that little car!!!
