21. Vintage Ferrari and Maserati gasser-upper and parts chaser at age 17.
I had two really memorable jobs in High School: Chinetti Ferrari and Touring Motors East in Connecticut. Worked basically as a parts cleaner and swept the floors. But, when a customer car needed to be gassed up or driven to the glass or upholstry shop, they threw me the keys and off I went. I also got to be pit crew at a bunch of SCCA races. This was the early '70s as a part-time job I had in High School.

I occasionally got a little sidetracked, and ended up driving through the parking lot at my school:



Of course, I was never that cool or good looking, myself.
