What was the shittiest car you ever had?
Thinking back over the various vehicles, I would have say is was a 63 VW bus. I sure wish I had it now, though. It was downright dangerous. But I loved driving it around. Bought it for $45. Put in a rebuilt engine. It had cut out fenders and was Baja style. Not much interior. We bolted in a few seats from a later model junk yard bus. It popped out of gear, so you had to hold it in gear or tie the bungie cord on the shifter. Slow as heck. But all my college friends piled in and we cruised from party to party in it.
In close second place was a 79 VW Scirocco. It often had mechanical problems, but was a hoot to cruise around. It was the first car I had with a pull up parking brake.
