How old (er young) are you??

[1 Wild R/T]

almost 61......

Doing what you do gets harder as the years go by..... Hoping you remain healthy for many years to come.....
Had a friend that was an excellent metal man, never used plastic filler, metal finished everything.... Was still doing it at 90 years old..... Unfortunately we lost him last year...

Then again Gene Winfield started his trade here too... Apparently some bodymen last forever....

70 last year. It seems like when I was young and hurt myself it would be a couple of days and I'd be good to go again. Then it went to a couple of weeks, and now it's a couple of months, but it seems to happen more often now for some reason.

100% true. Sometimes the ache or pain DOESN'T go away and you live with it. And those start adding up. Ahhh , so good to be old.

Whoever said putting on your pants, without falling over.
That was clever.
Meantime, I might be the oldest, and I have no idea how I got here.

 

[JackR]

Old enough to retire soon. And the more I work on my cars (and most everything else physical) the older I feel. Takes a day or two for the pain and bleeding to stop. But I still can do it all.

 

[VANDAN]

68.96, and Praying this year will be a bit less difficult...

Think it's been awhile since one of these threads got started.....did a quick search but didn't spend much time on it. Anyways....don't need anyone to post their actual birthdays. So how the heck old are ya?? 74 here and heading for 75 in a few months.

64. August.
As with cars though, it isn't necessarily the model year that matters - it's the mileage....

Agreed.

53 by the calendar. 196 by mileage and abuse.

Now I am starting to feel older. I finished high school while some of you were a gleam in your father’s eye!

I've had back issues since around 30, so that has been a constant battle as I work on my cars or other things. When I changed the ball joints on the Coronet last summer it took like a day and a half to do the job and around 2 days to stop feeling the effects.
