Dont wait until it is too late

In addition to the great members on this forum I also greatly appreciate the V8 Club advisors, particularly those who wrote books on their specific years of knowledge. We are truly lucky that some of those advisors like David Rehor, David Gunnarson, and Mike Kubarth are also on this forum. As one of the few on this forum on the short side of 50 I am somewhat apprehensive about the future of the V8 hobby, but that is a topic for a different thread.

I would also like to thank all of those who post and add their wisdom daily/regularly. Along with all the great members who have been mentioned already, I would also like to acknowledge RonnieRoadster in CT, Jim in FL (19Forty), Dale in OH (Bored&Stroked) and (RIP) V8Coopman. I'm sure the more I think about it, I'll add more to this list.

I'm another one here on the short side of 50. In December, I'll have a year to go before I retire. Can't wait to have more time to work on old Fords.

After attending TROG a few weeks back, I can report the hobby is alive and kicking. May have changed a bit and the end goals may not align to some, but the interest in old Fords is stronger than ever in my opinion.

What I think is cool is it seems like more folks are driving their old Fords. They are not waiting until they are restored. They are loving them as they.
