    No one cares about age in either club, it's the love of the cars that drives it.

    You are probably pretty close with that guess, but age does not matter as us old farts like to see younger generation taking part in something besides a ricer :thumbs2:

    We still remember being young, I think :rolleyes: When I was 19 a 73 Maverick was new

    I would say the average age of a Maverick owner is anywhere from 14 to 84. :D

    I don't know of any car clubs out there that care about age of the person. Just join up and have some fun.

    Im 43 but I can act 19 quite often!!!! I love talking to young car guys. Well except the Honda die hard we had at work. He got really pissed when I told him I loved hondas also.
    Best lawn mower I ever had.

    Seriously though age means nothing in the car game.
