History "Mature" H.A.M.B. Folks

I could have used one of those at Hershey this year with my bum knee!

 

Its the next day that one of those would help me...!.

 

Looks like the Senior version of the parade lap at Daytona 500.

 

71 ... still good for one round ... MAYBE two ...

 

68 going to my 50yr school reunion this Saturday.

 

40-Z.............you know 40, 40 A, 40 B and so on...lol

 

72 and still fuckin' goofy. Optimistic enough to have several project cars in the lineup.

 

No. I don't need any junk, lawnmowers, broken chain saws, or used housewares.

 

63, but 4EVER18!

 

68, still working, going to 70 than the 53 Ford gets rebuilt

 

Are we oldies a really, really small % of the membership here, or are most oldies just keeping quiet about their oldie status?

 

LOL I used to wake up every morning with a stuffy, now I just wake up stiff.

 

Now that plate says it all !

 

Thanks. I've owned the car 45 years - since I was 18 years old and working at our local Ford dealer.

 

10 pages in 4 days and considering that a bunch of people don't post a lot. I would say you guys are the majority. That's not a bad thing mind you.

 

According to my pedometer app, I did 17 miles of walking (over 51,000 steps) at Hershey this year.

 

Just turned 66.

 

Go back to page 7, post # 182.
It was there that I listed the age groups, for those over 62, who replied to the first 181 posts of this thread.
Interesting results, I thought.

 

I will turn 75 on the 1st of next month. I'm still going strong, riding my new bike and working on the Buick.

 

70 years old ,retirement checks for the last 11 years ,SSI for 8 years ,I honestly never thought I would live this long.

 

62 next Monday

 

Great story, you and the car are soul-mates !

 

Happy Birthday and welcome to the 62 S.S. Hambers ....... no, the S.S. does not stand for SuperSport.

 

I'll be 81 in Dec., still driving my chopped 37 Terraplane and working on a 37 Dodge Canopy Express, very slow though. Started building my first hot rod, a chopped channeled model A in "53". Where did the time go? Having fun with cars keeps you young.

 

Hello,

It was1968 and those were the best of times for us, but the worst of times for the USA and the world. Turbulent times offset by tranquility in our very small, cool, apartment. Low paying jobs, happy little dog, cozy apartment with a garage, new camera, and nice cars…etc.

Not looking ahead to old age…but time marched on too fast. Although, those early times still keeps us alive and well.

i'm 68. retired at 59. remember when a motorcycle won the nhra nationals. and when people gave flatheads away! need i say more?

 

I'll keep this thread ALIVE!
66 but don't give a damn about age.
Can't even remember if I posted on this thread before!
I graduated from High School here in '68, these are the front steps.
Except for the gray hair I look the same!! HAHAHA!!
Look foreward with optimisim, look back with amazement.

 

Weeks away from my 76 th. Birthday
I'm still wondering how I made it this
far. The good news is, I just ended a
12 year search for a ' 27 Ford body, a
metal front half of a touring body.
The lack of a real Ford body has had me stalled for a while. The frame and running gear have been done for a
couple of years now. I just couldn't
bring myself to use the very old and
flimsy ( no wood ) glass body I have.
The best thing is , I can move on to
finishing my lakes modified dream.

......... Jack

 

72 , hunting old parts keeps me in the hobby.

 

If I saw those numbers on my pedometer, that alone would be enough to make my knees hurt.
