OK! Let's get personal!

[29FordRoadster]

I'm 87 and hope to drive my A to the MARC National Tour in West Virginia next May the good Lord willing.

[31Cabriolet68-C]

I'm 74.... Thanks for asking. Great question....

BTW: I found my 68C in 1969, so come this Spring I'll have been an A owner for fifty years(!)... I'm the Cabriolet's third owner, and it's the only A I've ever owned.....TallyHo!!!!!!!

Real close to 69 and bought my first model T at age 11. And still got it. It was my first car.

[Jwilli]

81 and have 2 many projects. 1929 Anna Mobile, 1930 fordor, 1930 Cabriolet, 1931 Tudor and 1985 London Taxi with ford engine and transmission and left hand drive.

73, and still many projects to finish! Funny thing is when I wake up in the morning I feel like I am 18, and can do anything, at about lunch time I wonder how I did anything, and it is all down hill in the afternoon....

82, feel like 81. Hope to drive my 31 to Canyon Lands Tour.

[oldforder]

I am 75, but some days feel even older. But in my mind I am much younger. I just bought my A a year ago.

[Badpuppy]

Somehow comforting to find we're mostly all a bunch of daft old farts. i'm 73.

[Mike85212]

I’m 58, however most days I feel much older.

I'm a few months shy of 80 and I can see where this is going. From the responses, it looks like our hobby is dominated by guys over 70. The market will be flooded with Model A's during the next ten years or so as we all croak because the younger generations don't seem to be interested in our treasures or don't have the space or the money. The fully restored trailer queens will go to the millenials who have the cash but no knowledge of how to work on them. The rest will likely waste away in garages or out in the back yard or converted to hot rods. This concern about how to preserve our hobby has been going on for some time now. Wish I had an answer.

I am older than any Model A ever made. I was with Dad in September 1928 when he traded in his Model T and we drove home in a 1928 Fordor. Bought my first "A" in 1937, before I was old enough to have a drivers license, continuous owner since then. Made my first Ford dealer buyout of obsolete parts in 1947, all Model T parts then, Model A buyouts came later, and V8 still later. Time flies when you are having fun!

19 and a few months which adds up to 78.

[whirnot]

Thanks for asking this! I am 65. Look like I am on the younger side of the average here.

[Corley]

I'm older than dirt. Almost. Maybe. Oh, I bet you wanted years, not comparisons, right? Well, when I can't remember, my wife says that I am 77, almost 78. When I do remember, I'm 16, and the neighbor girl looks really hot! (Now she looks like a truck drove over her face, sure glad I didn't marry THAT one!) Wait, maybe my wife is right and I'm wrong, I sure have the belly for 77, it takes 15 minutes to pee, and by then it's time to pee again, and I can hardly see my, ooops, ... Well crap, now you have me really confused!!! Nancy, did I take my pills today?


What was the question?

[Tacoma Bob]

Just turned 69 last month which is now the "new" 50, LOL My Dad bought a 30 ccpu in 1954 in Everett, WA I walked with him to pick it up. Been in Love with Model "A"s ever since.
