First car bought in 1982, last year in high school and still sits in the garage.  My other Mopar bought in 1997 so 21 years on that one.  No plans to part with either anytime soon . . .

Tomorrow is promised to NOBODY . . . .

My first vehicle (a '66 F100 truck) I bought in 1980, still have it.
I brought my Charger home October 1986, so in a few months it will be 32 years. I am older than both of them, I'm a '64 model. ;D

This is the morning after I bought the Charger, the Pinto was mine too.


This is June 1991.

The Aquamax...yes, this bike spent 2 nights underwater one weekend. (Not my doing), but it gained the name, and has since become pseudo-famous. :)

Last time I posted to one of these it was 30 years ago.  Now I have owned it for 35 years and in my family for 48 yrs.

Pic with strips to protect doors still on doors and a pic of me in the valliant we traded in for the charger.  Didn't realize how much I looked like a bobble head.
Who in their right mind would say

"The science should not stand in the way of this."? 

Science is just observation and hypothesis.  Policy stands in the way.........

Or maybe it protects us. 

I suppose it depends on the specific case.....

I've had one for 8 years, the other for 6.  :Twocents:

My father bought the '69 brand new, it's the first car I ever drove (1972) and it has been in my garage for the past 17 years.  :icon_smile_big:

Purchased my first car on Feb 1st, 1987. A '69 Charger SE 383-4bbl... still own it today. I was nearly 17 years old then and I'll be 48 in a couple of weeks, where has the time gone? But I remember the day we went to go purchase it like it was yesterday...

I have owned 6 or 7 Chargers, over the years,I owned a 66 for 12 years before I had to sell(wife got sick) it.
Current 1969 I have had for just over 14 months.
and  the car is 11 years older then me.
I hope to have it for so long I will be getting that flying car conversion done to it like on Back to the future II.

Bought the longest owned one in 1987. That sounds like a lot of yrs putting it down, sure has been fun.
