First auto accident was in the '69 Bug the night before the beginning of my senior year of high school. Rolled it out into a farm field. My friend and I climbed up out of the vehicle to exit the drivers side, and we pushed it uphill back onto the wheels. Pushing it downhill would have been easier, but it would have rolled over the undamaged portion of the vehicle. We put the spare tire on to replace the one that was peeled off its bead.

Probably spent $80 in parts to replace the damaged stuff including a side window, running board and fenders.
