first manual car i learned to drive was my dad's '64 vw bug. i thought it would some day be mine, but alas it didn't happen.

the first manual vehicle i bought was a brand new 1990 nissan hardbody pickup. i was in a lowrider mini truck club at the time lol.

my second manual vehicle was purchased from a friend in my club...it was a mazda mini truck lol. the nissan was way better btw.

My first manual Ironically was a 1974 Gold Datsun 260Z . I bought it back in 1983 from my buddy for $600 and spent the weekend riveting sheet metal into the floor.
boards. Mine looked similar to pic, with alot more rust.
My second Manuel was a 1978 Datsun 280 Z Burgundy. Bought that one in 1985. I remember thinking what a difference fuel injection makes.
