Just so people know, no one can see what age you indicate in the poll.

Interesting that so far half are between 60~70

54, bought my car in 1975 when I was 16 for $1200.00 with no engine. The one thing I regret is the guy had blown the engine and wanted to keep it. Being young and naive I thought who cares it's just a small block but I could kick myself now.
