Yup. 27. My first car was an "import rice rocket" 71 datsun 510, then onto american tin with a 63 chevy II ss and a 71 Jimmy Truck. Never owned a car younger than me by a long shot. BTW Lookin to trade the 63 for something older...

I'm 25 I have a '52 Plymouth mild custom and a '70 ElCamino. They were both my first 2 cars and still have them.
Wait a minute. BASS, you are only thirty? Then where did you get the, what seems to be 60+ years experience in metal shaping? Your '49 fastback has to be one of the most beautiful car being built. Also one of the most takled about cars too, and you are building it by yourself. You definitely gives us younger (only by a bit) guys something to strive for by the time they turn thirty buddie. You are a metalshaping master. Ahhhh, I have to get my ass in gear.
Three years ago I turned 20 for the third time. I've owned over 100 cars and I'm still on the hunt. Looking forward to being 25 if I don't have to act like an adult. Frank
I'm 28 now. I've owned 36 cars to date, the majority being '60-'72 GM stuff with a couple of old mopars thrown in for fun. My current old car is a '64 Riv. I guess it depends on your definition of "vintage". I figure almost 44 years old qualifies it as old iron ??
28 here, but I built my first car with my dad when I was 13 (wasn't really hard tho, just an engine rebuild and no body work except prep and paint). It was a 1969 RS/Z28 barn find. Pops got it for about $500 back in 92, now it's worth over 50K! And my dad always asks me why I don't restore a muscle car, even beaters are too damn exspensive. my current project is a 60 impala sports coupe past projects were a 51 AD pickup along with a bunch of VW's and random muscle cars we bought and sold. future dream project is a chevy tin woody, a merc, 55 chevy wagon or a 53 buick. it all depends on which one I bump into first and if I have enough funds to buy it.
I'm 18 and have been working on the same project since I was 15. Now that I can afford to get stuff done, I might be able to have my car done before my 19th birthday in June!
27 here... I've owned the f-100 in my avatar since I was 14, and built it into what it is today from a longbed farm truck.
