Re: What age were you when you caught the "fever"?
This would be imposible for me to answer since I have always had the fever ever since I can remember. I think what really got me though was the cold December evening when my parents took me and my brother car shopping in Northern New Jersey. From looking at the snow covered Marlboro Maroon 1969 Corvette to our trip to the Ford showroom which housed a yellow 1970 Boss 302, a Black Jade Shelby GT500 and the Raven Black Mach 1. The test drive in the owner's 1968 GT 500 convertible to seeing, what would ultimately become our 1969 Grabber Blue GT500 which was under a cover along side the dealership. Yes, I would have to say that this night in particular solidified my passion for loud, fast and beautiful musclecars.
