Every Car I've Owned Since 1965

 In 1965 I went for my Chauffeur's Licence in Oakville. I was living in Long Branch (Toronto) back then and my father suggested it would be easier to take the test in a smaller town so Oakville it was. The car was a standard shift so stopping and starting on a hill was the hardest part. I passed! The car - Dodge Polara 1966, the red car in the second row from the bottom.
