I am too depressed. Your Dad's FIRST car was a 1976 anything. Jesus I feel old.
Frank, whose Dad told him stories of Hudsons and a '57 Belair (bought new) that he and a his brother would race.
we had a sledge pulled by the dogs and lived in a yurt.
Gee, I came home from the hospital in a '37 Chevy and my dad's first car was a Model T. Feelin' younger yet, Frank?

And your mother chewed pelts to make the felt, da?

Somebody in my town had a Nash Metropolitan up for sale recently. Looked showroom new. I thought I could put it in the back of my pickup in case I got a flat tire or something. Jack "the 109 nut"

Much better, thanks!
MPC did a '76 Firebird as an annual kit in 1/25 scale - check eBay for availability. I don't know if that car has ever been done as a ready-built diecast though.
That would be one *expensive* spare! Probably worth more than the truck.... ;-p
Mom, Dad and new baby would just about fill that one.

Probably, I'm told that's one of the reasons a '59 Rambler wagon replaced the Nash within a month.
Here's one, about halfway down on this page:
