  1. 54, Getting older is better than getting old. I'll be old when I give my tools to my kids.

    I gotta say I'm glad the ratio is what it is ... that means there are less dudes my age who PRETEND we know everything and more dudes on here who actually KNOW it.
    Respect.
     
  3. 45. I had to use my calculator. Man I'm glad we learned
    how to use those things in grade school...
     
  4. 62 and getting older; not old......It's all a state of mind.....and some days, of mind over
    matter.....

    55 years young. And by looking at the bar graph, I've had my truck since before 20% of you were born! Bought in '74 for $200 from the grandson of the original owner. Kid didn't want it, but it's a keeper for me.

    You have youth and experience on the same site, what more is there.
    It should be obvious to the younger people that this strong interest in this car style does not go away. Be prepaired for a long association, it just does not go away.

    LOL! That was gonna be my question. This means I've got less than ten years until I fall hopelessly into the plus sign, never to be heard from again?! ;)

    I wouldn't have thought there would be so many old farts here. I'm 49... still clinging to the belief that I am not an old fart yet.

    Wow I'm surprised at how many older guys we have on here, I always figured it was a bunch of young hoodlums like myself. 26 here.

    better to be an old fart than a young fart... old farts don't smell as bad... they've had time to dissapate!

    Reading all these, got me thinking. Had a friend in Florida, had two 31 A,s. Both beautiful, House well over a million, money that he would never spend, enjoying retired life and last year he was out driving the Coupe, a young one needed in the lane he was in, and took it, and his life. His wife died 8 days later, so live it as long as you can, You can be 20 or 80. When you go, your gone, and they come in and devide the spoils. Finish the build and drive it, quite talking about needing a (round to it) and do it. Ice man
