Rosco Posted September 11, 2019 Report Share Posted September 11, 2019 (edited) I’m 68, but got into this old car hobby a long time ago in my early teens while working alongside my cousin on my uncle’s farm during summer “vacations”. My cousin was into old cars and gave me a ‘40 Plymouth Road King. Well, with one thing and another, and a serious lack of cash at the time, I ended giving that car to another cousin of ours, while vowing to have another one some time down the road. That time finally arrived about five years ago when a friend of my brother’s sold me his original survivor ‘50 Plymouth Deluxe with 38000 original miles on it for a really good price and I’ve been driving and enjoying (with occasional minor wrenching) this car ever since! I certainly enjoy this forum very much and everyone is so very helpful. The thing I like best is that you usually get several replies to inquiries and therefore several different opinions from different people (sometimes from all over the world), all trying to solve the same question or problem.

Dan Hiebert Posted September 12, 2019 Report Share Posted September 12, 2019 Yeah, but if this thread keeps popping up I'll have to change my demographic after a while (as will everyone else ). By the way, thanks, like I really needed the reminder that I have another year under my belt - If I live to be 100, I'm over half dead...

keithb7 Posted September 13, 2019 Author Report Share Posted September 13, 2019 (edited) This thread has some serious holding power. Probably lasted longer than some marriages. It keeps re-appearing. I do enjoy it. The age chart tells the a real story. All about what is going on with the vintage car market. Sad but true. Which is also why this forum is among my top internet sites. Classy, respectful, knowledgeable, helpful, mature, folks are all here. Giving out great free advice. Thank you! Much appreciated. I’ll be paying it forward too.

Vin's 49 Plymouth Posted September 15, 2019 Report Share Posted September 15, 2019 I'm 46, My first car was a Mopar and I've owned about 20 more, mostly muscle cars. My outlook is that all of us are keeping the classic cars and trucks alive for future motor heads. That's a great thing for a world that is steering away from combustion engines. I hope future generations think about our contribution.? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tim Larson Posted September 16, 2019 Report Share Posted September 16, 2019 A hashtag is used to "tag" a post with different terms in order to aid when people are searching for a specific combination of words. "a word or phrase preceded by a hash sign (#), used on social media websites and applications, especially Twitter, to identify messages on a specific topic."
