Hot Rodding and young guys. How many are there?

I'm 27. I've been into old cars since I got my license. My old man was a car nut back in the day, and didn't want me to get into it. It happened anyway. I had a few old rides then I hit some hard times for a while and didn't have much to show for it. Now I've got a really clean non-HAMB-friendly '66 Coronet and am working on starting something traditional. I love vintage cars and most things vintage.

 

I'm 33 and its either in your veins or it isn't. I didn't get a chance to get into cars until after I graduated college and got a job that allowed me to pay for a place to park things. I have a house and a wife that compete for my time but I look at the few hours I get in the garage as therapy.

 

hey! im 19 years old, turning 20 tomorrow and I have a few hot rods. a 1933- 3 window Ford coupe, getting a 6" chop on it right now, my 1936 international, and then my future project of a 1932 ford 5 window. All real steel in my house!

 

That pickup looks familiar-was it in a rod and custom mag a little while back along with two other traditional rods on the salt?

 

I'm 30 years old with a 32 5 window...Been into the old stuff since I was 14.

 

Hmmmm.... I'm 38, Could pass for 25. Feel like i'm 90. Does that count? I do remember my 20's though!!!

 

20, working on a traditional Av8 and a '77 Lotus Esprit

I'm 34 been hot rodding since I was in dypers. slowed down when I had 4 children and bought a house. back at it again with a 48 plymouth a 454 and a blower, a 30 tudor with a flaty, and a 95 saturn with a tuneport. glad the rat rod came becaues with santa and bills my cars won't look like the high dollar ones for a wile. Having three toys in the garadge don't help neither but i'm addicted to the Hot Rods.

Peace, and live your dreams .There not out of reach if you belive in them.

 

WHHHHHHHHHHHOOOOAAAAA! Youve got some HOT RODS! Even if its ugly!

 

I'm 23 with a 1960 F100 223 inline 6 that I'm going to restore.

 

23 here, and right now I'm too broke paying for school to do shit with my cars.

 

I'm 38, but have been driving old cars since I was 15.
Never had a car newer than 20 years old, mostly much older.

 

Hey! Why yes it was on the cover of Rod and Custom on Feburary 2009. It was a great photo shoot, amazing experience for a 19 year old on the salt.

 

I'm 27, UTI grad in Diesel. Right now a diesel tech for Case IH Agriculture division. Been into rods and customs, harleys, anything with an engine as long as I can remember. Plan to be as long as I am able.

 

I'm 25 and have been into Rods, Customs, Gowjobs, Vintage bikes, you name it since day one!

Bought my '65 Falcon at 17 (building it up now), built my '26 T roadster at 23 and am working on a '29 Model A-V8 roadster (replica of my grandpa's high school car) as well.

I plan to be at this as long as my heart is pumpin'.....boy, I am gonna need a hell warehouse to store all those cars though...

 

Iam 25 have 3 HAMB friendly cars and 1 not.....but its still fun

 

I'm 22 and more of a "car guy" than a "hot rodder" i guess. I have a 1967 chevy c-10 lowered with billet wheels and all that, a 1931 ford tudor street rod with a traditional theme, and am building a 32 chevy coupe hot rod. Seems like most guys around my age are into camaros, mustangs, and chevelles though...except you guys of course!

 

I'm 25 and have been in to hot rods and pretty much anything old my whole life. I have a 34 ford 5 window and somthing newer but done with a old school feel.

 

so lets just say your doing pretty well

 

I am 27 with 2 drivers and all kinds of projects

 

38 years young

 

Yeah, I'm finishing my senior year at high school, I always loved the old American Iron. My dad and my uncle were into cars back in the '60s, so was my track coach (pretty much he lived American Graffiti), so you could say I "came up right." I saved my nickels and dimes and finally got my 1964 Olds Ninety-Eight, it's got the 394 Sky Rocket, and that motor got me hooked on classic Olds Rockets. Someday I'll soup up another 394 and stick it in a '36 Ford coupe or whatever I can find. However, like another guy said I'm off to college in a little bit, so this may have to wait...
Cool thread!

 

29 now.. been in the garage with Pops since i dont even know when! Now hes too old to be out there but i still am! My current project is a 59 f100. I just finished buildin the motor from top to bottom and she runs like a raped ape. Now its on to suspension. i have a good friend with a 51 merc and a shop so i spend alot of time there too. Love it, always have always will.

26 now, had a bone stock 49 plymouth in high school, probably the only 6volt car at the school. had nothing but old cars, kept switching em up, now I'm building the 30 ford

 

I'm 24 years old. There is alot of young guys into the car life style but there is only a few true blood's. It just so happens that we r the crazy ones. After working on r cars for the day we come on here becuase we did not get enough car stuff.

 

I'm 24 with a 32 5 window, will be starting a 29 roadster pickup soon.

 

I am 29, been doing this all my life, first trophy in 1998 @ 18 engine, body, paint etc... all mine. Now I have a shrine to the combustion engine in my house.
