    This thread got me thinking, what did the dodges look like in the year I was born, mid 1959. Heres a couple I found makes me feel old.

    Yeah I wondered the same thing, I think 1952 Dodges and Plymouths were pretty ugly, I know the 54's were ugly.

    Well, don't know if this counts, but my mother is 60, and we just bought a '74 challenger

    I, however, am a rather late model.

      I think all late 40's and early 50's cars were ugly, here is a '52 Coronet.

    Sorry INOT, but that old Dodge is a '49.  I know beacause I am old enough to remember when it was new.  Back then my whole family was pretty much Mopar crazy, so we had at least one of just about everything Chrysler made, including several of the first Hemi cars.  One of my uncles worked part time for a Chrysler Plymouth dealer & he had lots of really neat old Mopars.  And by the way, that old Coronet was considered pretty sharp in its day.  In fact, (in my opinion!) cars had more character & more different shapes back then than they do now.  A couple of our most popular car mags have even referred to the new style vehicles a "squashed jelly beans."  Not my words, but theirs.  You really had to be around then to appreciate them.  Just think,  anyone could buy a new Hemi car without hocking the farm.  They actually got as good or better fuel economy as anything else, & would run them in the ground, both in speed & longevity.   See, being old has some benefits!!! HA!!!!   ovmf/Wayne

    Every year on my birthday my mother asks me if I feel any older. I say no, it's just another day & no big deal. I'll be 43 in December & still don't think it's a big deal. The only time I "feel" old, is when my 6 year daughter wants me to play with toys & I join in & sit on the floor with her. I feel my knees getting stiff quicker, & getting up off the floor isn't as easy as it used to be. I can still stay up real late & I don't need any naps yet either, just more coffee.

    Guess I'm not the oldest on here, but I just look like one of the oldest with all the gray hair.

    Hey OldMoparz...we're the same age and I can totally relate to the sitting on the floor thing.  I used to do that all the time, now...it's a bit tougher.

    I am only 27, and my butt falls asleep when I sit on the floor.

    LMAO! What till you get older, your but will be asleep standing up, but it'll still be on the floor! There is a solution though, just eat enough to fill out all the loose spots and keep em nice and tight!
