    Yep, happy and carefree; 6.5 years before Hirohito sent his planes to Pearl Harbor or 34 years before the first Maverick!

    Man there are a lot of old farts on here! :p

    January 1980. 10 years and 3 months newer than my car.

    Distinguished cars of my youth. The 3rd generation F-body, 5.0 mustang, Turbo Regals, GNs, and T-types. My generation has introduced the car world to the rice rocket. I apologize in advance.

    Add one more old fart to the list. I was born in 1958 only 14 years before my '72 Grabber.

    I was introduced in January '73 as a '72.5 model. So me and my car are roughly the same age. I'm thinking of putting on a 73 bumper so I can tell my freinds that we are twins.
