I'm 37 and I often feel like a young whippersnapper on the boards here. Though when I meet many people from here in person they turn out to be younger than I expected usually.

I think the high automotive knowledge/skill level of many people here makes me assume they're "older," especially combined with the fact that everyone here can ID any car from 1953 based on a grainy partial photo of the fender arch.

Born in the Malaise Era, though late in it.

Or old enough to know better, but too young to care.

You're four years older than my oldest daughter...

...I'll be 62 in August

The first car other than family I drove was a new 1968 BMW 1600, belonging to a teacher at my HS, and I'm STILL on Double Secret Probation for it!

42 and I've seen some owners/builders in the BUILDS section and I'm like "damn they look like kids" and they're so far ahead of me mechanically!"

I'll be 27 in August and several of my cars are older than me. Definitely not "classics" though.
