Hmmmmm....seems to me that I have neckties older than some of you fellows..........but thats okay.....they have been in and out of style several times
Didn't get to own my first Vette til I was 61 ....a real pretty Silver Green '82 and I am about to get my old age pension this year so they tell me........wife keeps telling me to act my age but I remind her that I don''t know how.....never done this before. Neighbours say I am having a middle age crisis but I tell them that was about 25 years ago and all my fellow teachers think I am crazy while they sit and rock while I love cruising and buzzing down the highway at 3 figure speeds.
All I can say is that Vetting has given me a new life and I love it.......and speaking of remembering..........how many remember buying a Coca Cola for a nickel from a pop machine?......now thats old! :cheers:

Anyhow enjoy life as you only get to go around once I am told :party:

..........how many remember buying a Coca Cola for a nickel from a pop machine?.

Haaaa, I remember that... it was about 1957 I think, and a Nickel would get a small 6oz glass bottle Ice Cold coke... dos'ent seem that long ago... :crazy:

Put me down for a old timer too. I can remember when we got the first TV in our neigbour hood and had the only phone in the block. I remember the small bottle cokes, I remember when a friend got the first 265 56 chevy. He had a V8.
I also remember girls in guarder belts, fish net stocking ..... got to go now, something just came up.

You older fellas rock! I am 30 (some would say I'm getting a little older) and hope to have the same great outlook in another 30 years!

Wise words..."Anyhow enjoy life as you only get to go around once I am told"

Can I just skip the mid-life crisis, family stress, lack of sex , and just
enjoy myself like youz guyz ? Maybe I should just find a nanny (for the wife + kids)
that works part time as a sex surrogate. :lol: :lol: :yesnod:
wifey --> :skep:

NHvette. Don't knock the sex. Just because we are old doesn't mean we are not getting any. If you are good you will get the sex. Be considerate, practice all you can and eat lots of jello pudding in the contains. Leave the spoon at home. :) :)

"Guarder" belts? Must have been an early alternative to the pill ;) .

Can't say that I remember cokes every being that cheap! Seeing as I only date back to 1985!! Well just shows that Vettes are for any age group!!! :steering:

Tell your wife that when she turns 60, you're going to trade her in for two 30 yr. olds...that'll keep her in line!

Don't let anyone (even yourself) tell you "you're too old to be doing that"!

I don't remember 5 cent Cokes, but I do remember 10 hamburgers for a buck, penny loafers, peace symbols, bell bottom blue jeans (the first time around), being able to make a call on a pay phone for a dime, and something about "nickel" bags of mary jane (P.S.- I never inhaled).

And to think everytime I heard my Dad talk just like I did, I swore I would never say something like that.

How many remember paying 12 CENTS! for a gallon of gasoline - probably about 1970 or so. Most of you Pups not even born yet, much less a thought.

Remember... you are as old as the people you feel... or something like that..... :lol:
