Turned 38 a few weeks ago . . . Got to give my Dad the nod for why I am into cars and especially Chevys. The more I learn the more I get addicted . . .

Ditto here....34 years old, still have my first car, a 72 Monte Carlo...Parents had it since 73...I grew up in that car. (Now I've owned it longer than they did...kinda scarey!)
Still have the first car I bought in high school too, 70 Monte Carlo 402 4 speed car.
Came close to selling all of them when my son was born, didn't think I'd have the time. Now I'm looking forward to the time I can spend with him on them as he gets older...he's currently 5 and chomping at the bit...(have a 71 SS454 Monte sitting in the garage waiting for that day to arrive)

I know what you mean. I had some real serious health problems in 1999 (kidney cancer) and recovery was pretty long. My wife could gauge how I was doing by my involvememt with cars. When I was really hurting, I had no car passion. As I got better, my passion for cars came back. When I drove to south Texas to buy a '67 big block and hauled it home, she new I was cured. She came home one day and I was in the garage with the car on jack stands and the tires off. The doctor had told me not to do any lifting yet and she just about took my head off.
