"See attached my 64 Chev Impala SS with a 409 engine. I bought it new in 1964. It's all original. Kept it all these years and never regretted it for a minute." Gordon Jassman

"I bought this lovely 36 horsepower 1958 Volkswagen Karmann Ghia coupe just after my 15th birthday, in 1972, for $300. I was not old enough to drive the car and to make do riding shotgun with my dad at the helm. I still own the car. It has endured two “restorations” at my hands, and is awaiting its third (now that I know what I’m doing). It has always been a source of great joy to me, and certainly burns less gas and is easier to park than, say, an Olds Vista Cruiser. In high school I used to struggle to get 3 dollars’ worth of gas into it." Clayton Wright

"I drove my '64 Buick Riviera, which I purchased in around 1982, to a Riviera Owner's Association car show in Branson Missouri this summer (approximately 2000 miles)." Ray White

"Attached is a picture of my 1966 Ford Mustang hardtop. I bought this car new in May 1966. I was about to celebrate my 26th birthday and decided I wanted a nice car for the first time in my life. I bought it from Market Ford sales in Minneapolis MN and I still have all the original papers. These days it mostly sits under a cover in my shop. You don't need the "new math" to figure out that I am now 71 yo. The car has aged better than me!" Bruce Butler Otis Orchards, WA
