I don't think this is depressing. I think its great to see so many young people keeping up these old cars and keeping them on the road. Its also nice to see such a wide span of ages with common intrests and hobbies.

The only car in the stable older than me is my '44 GPW (WWII Ford version of the military Jeep) and it only beats me by a year. I was out of high school before the 901 (911 no. 1) was introduced. It was a 356 world back then.

I've got my car beat by 19 years. It's a 1970 ..I'm a 1951. I was taking LSD and listening to Jimi Hendrix when it was rolling off the line! Looks to me that I'm all your worst nightmare ...your dad!

Hint: Check your birth certificate!

Unfortunately, I am 26 and 30 years older than my P-cars.

The oldest vehicle I have ever had was created when I was 4.

Longest I have owned a vehicle: My '68 Mustang which I have owned for 28 years! That's longer than some of you have been on this Earth!

Oh-oh, that's done it. Now my back is killing me and all of my joints are suddenly hurting!

Tom

I'm 44 and my car is 21, but the car I sold, to make space for the 911, was a 1923 Packard touring car, which was 80 years old last January.
