Old Farts?

Last week I was driving a 671 Blown Gen 2 Camaro. I was in my 20’s, not a care in the world. Well, in my mind it was last week. According to the calendar, not so much.

I’m 58 now and driving a Gen 5 ZL1. I don’t act, move, (or so I’m told), look my age. I’m still addicted to mods. That doesn’t end. Probably when I’m 90 , I will have a modded walker, or wheel chair.

Any other “Non Youngsters” in the crowd?

Relative to a newborn, yes. To most of us in this thread, not even close.

Personally, I may have a pair of socks older than you.

I agree. Man, time flew. It’s been a good ride, but I did 18-58 way fast.

I believe that’s the key to staying young. Stay active, stay healthy, think young and you have a better chance of staying young.
