Mine was 50 yesterday!

I haven't in the past, but now that I know it's a thing I'm going to start doing it. Please tell your car that I said "Welcome to the Centrum Silver generation." Also, 50 is the human age when you meet the definition of "community dwelling elderly," assuming you are still living in the community.....

That’s great!

If you ever want to sell that car…

Nope. But in CO at 50 we can apply for Horseless Carriage plates. They are very reasonably priced and last 5 years.

I don't celebrate it's birthday
but I do celebrate our anniversary
and that is now 50 years..

Can Some one tell me the B-day of 4702904771?
I will get the 6 vin also, but have to run to garage.
Matt

Get the chassis number not the vin.
Inside the drivers door by the door stay.

@DRPHIL914 - I am very sorry to hear that and hope you can maintain possession of your 914. Best wishes.

I’ll rent it for a couple of years

@Cairo94507
yea, hope so, will see how it plays out . certainly not something i ever expected to be saying or doing, not in a million years… just stuff in the end, but 75% of the value here is in my blood sweat and tears -sweat equity so to speak, if that were not the case i would be as attached to it. time will tell…

ah sh#t.
been there done that.

i still remember the X trying to say the 14 was worth 40K (aud).
this was back in 03.
i got a valuer in who put 4-5K on it.
which was actually probably about right back then. sort of.
he ticked the box (poor to fair condition).
he'd been through a D too.

fingers crossed for you dr p. hope you can hang on to it.
