Well, ten years ago I was thirteen, but it was around then when my grandma and granpa gave me and my cousin a shit load of model cars. I got into building them, so the first car I ever built, would be a 1970 Boss 302 Mustang. They don't make cool model cars like they used to. My first real car, was a 1985 chevy s-10 with a 1.9L 4 cylinder that went 0-60 in five days... no power anything, 4-spd standard, and had no air from the factory. I put some rims on it, dropped it a bit, put a system in it and fixed it up nice. It wasn't until about 2 1/2 years ago though that I really got into the performance aspect of cars.
