I've had my '29 rpu (the one in my avatar) since 1959 when I was 15. It's going through another rebuild now...

 

My dad bought this in 1929, first year Ford made a cabriolet.


It was passed around the family, but I've had it since 1958, ...that is 52 years. I last drove it in HS,but started building it again in the '90s, here are 2 fairly recent pics.

body needs to be put together; but the chassis is mostly done.


...in 1998 I got my '51, only 12 years. newer pic in my avitar.

 

I've had my '57 Chevy for 41 years and '29 Ford coupe for 21 years. Both still running strong.

I have been a lurker for a while. This is my intro, even though I may have posted before. Anyway I have owned my 55 Chevy hdtp since buying off a used car lot in 1975, a 55 Cadillac convertible since 1976, 48 ford pickup since 1968 ( Given to me by my Grandfather) and a 56 Plymouth Belvedere hdtp given to me last year by cousin. My other grandfather gave it to him in 1968 and I had told him for years that I wanted it if he ever got rid of it.

 

I have what is left of a 63 chev Pk that I bought in 1970. I have a 66 ford 2 ton i bought in 72 and a 55 ford wagon that was given to me in 74. I pulled out the no good 223 and installed a 262 a couple of years ago. havent done anyting else to it in all those years OldfWolf

 

You lucky dog!!

 

I've had my 38ford coupe for 44 years . Purchase date was August 9, 1966.

 

I've had Henrietta the '38 Ford pickup since I was 14 (1966). My parents bought Ozelle the '55 Ford new, the car has been mine since I was 16 (1968). Henrietta and Ozelle send friendly horn honks to all the long-time car owners. 11 year old grandson refers to Henrietta as "my truck," keep telling the kid he has to wait until Paw Paw is dead; likewise with oldest daughter who has her sights set on Ozelle.

 

Wow, Wish my garage was so "neat" and organized. Congrats on making your car a "keeper" for so long. Have owned my 40 Ford (avatar) for 47 years

 

The longest was a 69 Chevelle, 28 yrs. My 56 I've had now for 25 yrs.

 

44 years.... my parents got me and a 1965 Mustang at the same time. They always said it was "my" car.

 

37 years for me. Been in the family since new.

 

Bought my '71 in 1973 when I got out of the Air Force. Going on 38 years next spring.

 

I guess I have a dismal record selling hot rods; I've never let one go. My first car is still with me, the '40 Ford coupe I got in 1967, when I was 15. Got the '41 pickup in 1975, right after I graduated from pilot training. I've had the '29 roadster since 1982. Not much indication that I'll be getting rid of any of them soon.

 

Corvette 41 years and lots of miles.

 

My longest is only about 13 years. A shorter attention span I guess.

 

'69 Plymouth GTX, owned since August 1982...
