It is great being young... I have had my car for just about 3 years and done a lot of work to it and i still got a lifetime ahead of me to get it perfect

I'm in the same boat as the rest of the old-timer's here, bought my '78 in 2004 at age 48. I think I stole this car for $2000, drove it onto the trailer, took it to by buddies' barn with a hoist, put brakes on it and have been driving it since. I work on sections of it at a time and drive between projects.

Ya, I didn't haggle over the price. I bought it from a family whose son was a work-mate of mine, when I mentioned one day that my son and I had stopped to look a Vette foe sale, he said "we have a Vette we want to get rid of". Right away I'm askin' about what's missing?, is the fiberglass all busted up?, motor and tranny still in the car?, bla-bla -bla. He said "oh, it's all there, we start it once in awhile but it needs brakes". So what's new about that?,I'll be down to your place tonight to look at it. Well it didn't take me long to hand over the cash, load it up, and I've been smilin' ever since.

My 56th is commin' up. My mind still thinks I'm 30, but the body says,...
"No, don't try to pick that up" [].
My back just isn't what it used to be.

I bought my first Vette just last October, 2007. I was 26 years old. Its my favorite car I ever owned.

Bought my 96 vette March 8th of last year(I say bought, but it's on a loan), and just turned 19 yesterday I'm young and fairly healthy, but my mind isn't near as sharp as any of you guys
