I'm a 1968--My oldest car was a 1970...so pretty close...

Had it in college--sold it in 1988 and about 15 minutes later the market took off...

Well, I see 1985 is covered pretty well... though I would like to add this fast-but-ugly creation (kinda like me, minus the fast part )

I haven't owned a car that was built the same year I was born, but my Mazda RX-7 is less than a year younger than me (built in '86 for the '87 model year).

Just keep clicking on the "Insert Image" icon when you post; the pics stack on top of each other.

Unless you want to increase your post count while entertaining everyone else.

I was born a couple of years later. They were making cars then but I'm not sure the camera had been invented. Hence,no pics. In the year I was born,just beginning to recover from wartime shortages, having any car was pretty cool.
