My first free "car" was a 1987 Ford Ecconoline conversion van that my Aunt gave me because she failed at selling it and wanted it out of her yard.
I drove it for maybe 200 miles total over the course of 6 months or more, I was going to keep it because at the time I was working out of town and sleeping in a tent and thought that a van with a bed in the back might be nice! I instead opted to buy a Civic Hatchback and buy a new tent and sell the van... much harder then I thought it would be! I ended up selling it for $250 plus a Yamaha XT500 motorcycle in trade
