By "active", possibly we're talkin' about STILL layin' on one's back, underneath one of these old used cars with a monkey wrench in one hand and a screwing driver in the other....on occasion? DD |

Getting under there and working isn't so bad at 76, it's getting back up when done or worse if you forget something. Look like a damn upside down turtle trying to roll back upright!

Had a chuckle at your shirt there, Bob.
I feel sorry for the people that don't have a neat old car to roll under. |

Hey Bob, that wiring on your 34 roadster needs a bit of a tidy up. Nice car though, do you have some good pics of it ? Keep up the good work. Regards, Kevin.

I'd say BOB certainly qualifies for the Top 3, at this point.
And he has proof! |

Koates, You are more than welcome to come & help. You should see the underneath of the dash. I only started this 34 project when I turned 80. That is pretty quick for a bucket case doncha think.

Re: WHO Is the Oldest Early V8 Forum Member?
Not on here much but have enjoyed reading through this post. I just turned 58 and also just bought my first ever Ford this year. I have always been a chevy guy but always loved the 40 Ford Tudor and was able to aquire one this year from a local estate sale, I have to say it has been a good summer logging around 3K miles of trouble free fun on the old girl and looking forward to many more. Keep up the good work and it's nice having you experienced gentelmen around to keep us younger no it all guys in check.

I am 87. I'm neither proud nor ashamed of it. "It is what it is." (I would like to be 20-30 years younger. Probably won't happen.)

I will officially turn 90 on 12/27/21. I believe I'm the oldest, so far. Merry Christmas all y'all. Lawson
