Like someone else said "17 between the ears", but old enough to sign up for Medicare this year. Dang that stinks!
It is good to see a bunch of younger folks interested in "obsolete technology" Keep on truckin'.

Talking Re: Fordbarn Average Age

Will be 80 at the end of the month. Where are you folks who drove those old fords back when that was all we had to drive? Presently have a model A and a 36 five wndo. A friend of fine, just down the road, drove his model A to Alaska and back (alone) when he was near 80. We live in N. Lower Mich. No plans to sell yet.

Average Age? 389 replies, so, who is doing the math? Don't forget there are at least three ways of averaging. Some replies are over three years old. Others require subtext math. Any duplicates? And some Barners are not walking around any more. Where is Bruce when you need him?

I'm a little young at 40, but that's just a number. I am a grandpa though.

Seems like something is about to change since last post to this thread, oh yeah, on March 25 I'll turn 74.
Good health to all for the new year.
