I'm 19 (turning 20 in April) and own/have owned the following:

1948 MM ZTE

Grandfather's tractor, handed down to my father, and now to me- under restoration

1952 MM ZAU

Bought at an auction a couple years ago in running and operating condition for $1300. I paid $750, Dad paid $750.

Cockshutt 502 Swather

Bought it back in the summer, really have no use for it, so now looking to sell.

1983 Chevrolet Camaro Berlinetta

My first car/truck, a friend of a friend had it for sale, I went and looked at it, ended up getting it for $600 in excellent running and driving condition. I got it at age 16, had to sell it within a year due to insurance being $6500/year.

1979 GMC C35 Single-Rear Wheel 1 ton

My first truck, paid $500 for it at age 17. It was extremely rusty but ran and drove great with a 350 engine and a 400 turbo tranny. It was not roadworthy and was going to take too much work so I sold the engine and tranny to some demo durby guys and sold the body to some guys looking to restore it.

1983 Chevrolet C10

Excellent running and driving truck, bought it just after the 79 for $600. Had a 350 engine and 350 tranny, body was very solid and had mean 31" tires. Had to sell it due to insurance costs and in preparation for heading off to University

1985 GMC C3500 Crew Cab Dually Flat Bed

Bought it this past summer at age 19. Paid only $600 for it in excellent running and driving condition with an excellent body. Had a 350 engine and 4 speed tranny. Found out how much it was really worth, so put it up for sale. Traded for a 61 GMC.

1961 GMC 930 1 ton Single Rear Wheel

The truck I traded my 85 for, the 61 had an inline 6 and standard tranny, ran and drove great but needed a little body work, so could not be safetied. Insurance was going to be $4000/year, so I sold it to a nice gentleman who plans on restoring it.

Every vehicle I've owned, since the Camaro at age 16, has been bought with my own money, saved up from working from age 14 to present. Wish I could have kept every vehicle, but University drains your bank account, and only being able to work during the summers doesn't help either.
