My neuro-surgeon says i’ve got a 70 yo back in a 51 yo body , but i actually feel more like 40 both mentally and physically. Go figure.

A neighbor asked if my GT350 is a "mid-life crisis car" and Mrs. Muligan just laughed and said that I don't qualify for a mid-life crisis, as I've never left adolescence.

I’ll be 73 in August. Broke 200 mph on a Hyabusa at 68 at the Mohave Mile; plan to run Bonneville with it next year. Had shoulder surgery a couple months back, so my GT 350 has been sitting, desperate to get back to it, hoping in a week or two. Staying healthy is the key to a long gear head life, trying my best, lol !

Hello all. New guy here today. I’m the proud owner of a 2018 Shelby GT 350
bought new in October 2018. My age is
83.
Thanks
Alvin/aka oldgrinder
You are my hero!
At almost 65 I'm still having as much fun with my cars as I did when I younger. My GT350 was the first car in a long time that really spoke to me and had to have. Going from the old school stuff to the new technology has been a game changer for me. Can't wait to get it on the track, and hope to be able to for a long time.

Thanks for your reply. I had the same feeling about my GT 350 as you did. The GT 350 has 14,200 miles on it and getting more added.

I am not even a fan of Mustangs. Never owned one and outside of 65'-69' fastbacks, I think they are ugly ass cars. The gt350 spoke to me as well. Now the thing won't stfu.

I turned 75 last Saturday. So 75 and 1 week, 2 hours, 35 minutes and 2 seconds. But who’s counting.

But then again, I’m only about a week behind you.
