I got my first LUV truck (78 Starside) when I was 19 and newly married.
The next one (75) when I was 28.
The last three when (76 4x4, 79 4x4, 79 Stepside) I was 40.

I have just my one project truck now at 41. I have sold off the others after I used the parts I needed on my current LUV.

I'm 59, let's see anyone beat that. When I was a wee lad cars were cool. I came home from the hospital in a '40 Ford. We were the envy of the neighborhood when my Dad came home with a new '50 Olds 88 Deluxe - wide whites, 303 ci OHV V8, 4-speed Hydramatic, tuner-bar radio, etc. 10 years later me and my friends stuffed that engine and trans in my '48 Chev. Seems that teaching 4 kids to drive really wore out the Olds!
Lots of years, cars & trucks later I decided to get out of the car hobby. The kids are grown and gone, we sold the big house and moved to an old cabin in the country. After remodeling the cabin, my wife (bless her) suggested we get a small pickup for hauling bark, brush, etc. I spotted a '79 LUV that just fit the bill - 305 V8 and all.
Now it's got a 350, no top, and it really hauls bark.

I was 4 years old when my dad bought our first LUV, and 8 when he quit driving it and told me I could have it. It sat for 5 more years before we did anything to it, and I started driving it when I was 14.

I'm 22 now
