Default How old is everyone??

Just trying to judge the demographic here. I am 31 and have dreamed of a Cobra since I was 12.. I have had 10 fox mustangs but no Cobra yet. Looking at selling my current twin turbo fox stang (which was supposed to be the Cobra donar)...and getting rid of some debt.. then who knows how many years it will be before I get my Cobra.

I'll be 42 in June. I've owned a couple of late model mustangs and a variety of Ford hot rods, mainly pick ups with transplanted big blocks and monster 4x4's. I've been researching and looking at buying a cobra for 3+ years, but have always wanted one since I was a kid.

Do you mean collectively? I just ticked 50 but I'm a very immature 50.

I'm so old, I remember as a small child fearing that the Japanese were going to bomb us on a Suday morning....like Pearl Harbor. That's when we referred to them as Japs, certaimly not PC now.

I was in my 50s when I got mine. I have had muscle cars for the better part of my life of one kind or another. And sold all of them.

Also I find it easier to give my age if I leave off the first 4 numbers and just use the last two over and over.

Still feel like and 18 yr old most of the time.Certainly remember when the first Cobra hit the streets.If the price were not so high back then,would have owned one.Saw my first 427 Cobra at a dealership here in So Portland the year I graduated high school.All I can is,from that day on knew I would eventually own one,and have since 93.

Ron,

They tell me wisdom comes with age. Here is the question--would you rather be wise or old.
I'll be 65 next month--but, young and stupid was fun
