Awww, crap, the old people are coming out of the wood works. Anyone ever see that episode of South Park where they run around screaming "Run! Old people are driving! Old people are driving!" ?

If enough of them together, we'll have to reinforce our doors to keep them from crashing into our houses.

Donny is 20 and he's a card carrying member of OGTA, so 26 and 31.5 are definitely old, over the hill and ready to retire.

Donny, I checked on the auto parts store employee grants available through OGTA but they are financed by Autozone, so Advanced Auto employees are not eligible, sorry.

RXtasy, yes that's wodihor's 7 in the picture, check out the OGTA post in the SE forum for more pics, including photos of our glorious President himself.

Sorry 85 FB, I'm taking my FB's with me when I go.

Darthrotary, tell me you weren't in Holly's 3rd gen when it got T-boned like that. She showed us the pics. Ouch.

ya, i was in it. Still pissed about, months later.
Yeah, i got hurt pretty bad, but no where near what i should have! more pride than anything ;(
And i always said I beat the living **** out of whoever hit me, but the lady who hit me broke her arm in two spots as she was beeping on the horn when the airbag came out. Felt bad like i wished it on her. So the body is trashed but all the goodies are straight, DRIVETRAIN!!

So, does that mean we'll be seeing an old man with a personality complex having his 7 soar through the air, painted like the General Lee, screaming "Yeee-Haw!" and having the Dixie song playing?

I work at a wholesale company. Minimum wage, but suffice. I still need to get more parts though (halfway?). Car is such a money pit.

rxtasy3 - Actually, this is a thread where we're all joking around a bit. But, you're acting so serious. C'mon, lighten up, have some fun. I'm sure old guys have senses of humor. I know the other oldies haven't lost theirs.

I've been in the telecommunications industry for the past six months or so, installing equipment in Verizon central offices in the Pittsburgh, PA area. Not exactly exciting, but I'm making more money than I was working as a CNC plasma table operator in southwestern WV. I hope to one day run my own shop, fabricating and installing custom and performance suspension/frame goodies for various makes and models of different vehicles...
