Please don't judge me too harshly for this
Big question is, "Do you still have it?" I still have my '60's car.

I admire friends who've still got the Model A pickup that they learned to drive 80 years ago. I'm a young 68 but have bought and sold many vehicles that I would like to have again. Marriage, children, college tuition took it's toll on my ability to keep them. In some ways I've managed to upgrade along the way and have a tiny collection of pretty cool boy toys. Can't go back, no regrets.

PeteVS, no, unfortunately, I let that '65 GTO slip out of my hands in '70, when I purchased a '70 GTO. That was a mistake on my part, since the '70 was never the runner or fun to drive car that the '65 was.
Apparently, I violated your great moto of "Don't never get rid of nuthin"
