I am 76. Purchased my 75 914 CA car in March of 2009. Test drove a 914 in 1974 while attending college in CA., at the age of 26, got married, bought a couple of houses, and raised 3 sons. Owned a 66 Triumph TR4, built an ERA 289 FIA Cobra, sold it and bought the 914 for 5K. Out of all the cars, the 914 is my favorite. I do all the wrenching on the car. Attached Image

I have a customer who is 93 and still works on his 914. I don't think he posts on 914World though.

I'm 59 now.

I had a 914 when I was 17. Traded it for a 240Z at 19

40 years later I have multiple Z cars and 4 914s; 2 of which will make it back on the road.

I've got 1 grandchild.

I'm massively better at wrenching now but it's getting harder and harder to get off the creeper today.

It appears that gravity is increasing...

I'll help push the average up. 76 and still plays with cars and in my spare time I work at Kelly-Moss Racing just to be around a lot of young talented people. Love it. Owned this 914 for the last 45 years. MarkAttached Image

If so, then your clock should be slowing down.
