My first car was an old v8Hudson 4-door sedan, fobbed off on me by my Dad as he could find no other takers. I'm 5'2" and could not only barely see over the steering wheel, could barely turn that monster around...I learned to be very wary of dead ends. It had been in an accident (my dad drank a bit), was turquoise with one pink fender. Not a cool car! It did go fast tho, on a straight away...
