Pretty good demographic spread here....I think the old farts have the edge though!
Watch that "old fart" stuff. I can still push in the clutch.

I bought my first vette, a 1961, when I was 18 in 1979, and sold it when I was 24. Bought a 58 vette just over a year ago at the ripe old age of 52 and the chicks are still checkin me out when I drive it just like they did when I had my 61, and I'm still convinced it's not the car. lol
