AGE

[Dave Ambrose]

How true.

At present, I'm in limbo and worrying, testing is not complete yet.  I don't feel well, period.  New stuff for me.

Dave, I'm pleased to read of your recovery!

Thank you. Not knowing is the hardest part, and they often have to run several tests to rule out certain conditions. I'm a dyed in the wool technologist so all the instruments and what-not are interesting. I ask a lot of questions. Stay with it. They won't give up until you do.

Glad all of you that are in recovery are doing better and for the ones still working on it hang in there.  Me Id be happy to feel my age instead of feeling like I am in my 70s or 80s....I am just glad I wake up in the morning now.

I'm 51.  I was born in '65.  Didn't we talk about building cars from our birth year a long time ago?  That could make a fun community build!  

I'm 43,and I second (or 3rd,4th,etc) that that would be a fun idear

I turned 74 a couple weeks ago and still have a lot of projects under way.Don't let your"age"slow you down or change your outlook on life or what you can accomplish.Live every day to the fullest.

AMEN, as that was well said.

I think it was George Burns that said "If I new I was gonna live this long I would have taken better care of myself" but then again Im lucky I remembered the quote

Building a birth year car..  I was born Sept of 1958, and the 1959s were headed down the assembly line by then.  So I collect 1959s.

[misterNNL]

Building a car made in the year of my birth is gonna be a problem as darn few 1942 cars were built.I do have a '42 Chevy complete line brochure in color so I would have  starting reference material.

Same story here. I was born in '54. There is no 1954 car that interests me, but if we're allowed to count anything BUILT in 1954, that opens up the wonderful '55 Chevy.

In Sept. of '58 the 59's were already on the car haulers heading to the dealers. I use to check them out on our road trips to Buffalo.

Got a green light today after long term ECG.  Zero heart problems reported.  Arteries all clear and fine and things are pumping as they should.  Even a compliment about the blood count, low cholesterol and other values are very nice.

Tomorrow a renewed checkup about blood pressure, apparently the meds need to be re-arranged due to incompatibility. 

I'm much happier now.

Great to read lots of older guys still at it here!  Good stuff.

I haven't figured what 1946 to do, but with '42 I'd do Auto ID #299 ... the Blackout

I'm 65 and a regular visitor to the hospital. Just had my ulcers fixed yesterday.

[iamsuperdan]

I turned 43 yesterday. Happy to still be healthy.

This would make for an interesting thread.  

My birthday is October of '61 so I guess I could have these choices as seen here.................

This would have been brand spanking new sitting on the dealers lots just as the '62's were being intro'd or soon to be. This is a '61 Chrysler Imperial.

Or this.............

'62 'Vette...

Or maybe this.........

Or..........

Hmmm interesting..............

Worked on my truck today, raked leaves and cut the grass and I ran out of gas. No not my lawn mower, but me. Guess my body is aging faster than I though that it would. Getting older is not easy at times.

[martinfan5]

Mid 30's.

[bamadon]

Okay, I'll play. I will be 72 the day after thanksgiving. I guess I'm lucky since I have no real health problems. Just a few aches and pains now and then.
