I'm 65. These numbers are going to be skewed due to younger people being computer literate and as the age increases the litteracy goes down. So there are going to be many that won't be responding.
I'm 70, but glad to see so many "youngsters" taking up the model A hobby. Means my widow won't have any trouble selling the roadster. . . . When the time comes!!
I'm 31 and have been restoring and repairing early fords since I was 18. Started with the 31 Victoria. I'm currently finsihing up a 39 pickup. You can find the progress pics on the early V8 page.
73.... if I remember right......
First Model A in 1974 after wanting one for 20 years but it was too far gone and I was getting moved around on the job too much so it had to go down the road. Next one was 27 years later, in 2001. Currently have a 31 Deluxe Coupe and 31 Huckster-to-be.
I'm 31. got into old cars from my grandpa and his friends as a kid. Bought a 34 ford pick up when I was 15 and sold it about six years ago to buy my A.
83 here. First A was a 28 Roadster when in High School. In the hobby since 1962. Currently have three A's, a Dec. 1927 Light Delivery, a Feb. 1929 Roadster, a March 1930 Deluxe Coupe, and hundreds of wonderful people I have met since 1962.
I just turned 76 and have owned or restored over 20 Model A's and still have my 29 Special coupe since 1980 and the 30 roadster since 2005. Just finishing a 29 Town sedan for someone else and starting a 30 pickup restoration also for someone else. Always loved Model A's since I saw my first phaeton when I was 12. These cars keep you young.
I am almost 21 and have been collecting and working on cars for about 4 years now. I just purchased my 1930 Ford Model A Murray Bodied Town Sedan. My great grandfather collected Ford Model T's as well as Ford Model A's, but sold off his collection before I was born. According to my grandmother he had every year and model of the T's and A's in his collection. I think that is where I get my love for old cars. It's a fun hobby and am very glad to finale have a Ford Model A in my collection.
I will respond for my father in law, as he and his wife are cruising the east coast. He is going to be 70 on 1/22/12, and has had his '30 coupe since 1955.
