I dont think it matters how old you are, as long as you like what you're doing. I mean i think about it, and its kind of funny, one of my headlight brackets is broken, so i used that as an excuse to get new headlights (with brackets, or the whole thing is ruined :O )

So tell her to calm down, i'm sure you're not anywhere near the oldest one, and have fun fixing up the cb

You know I think your wife is jealous cause you got a cb which is the best car in the world jk cars are for everyone and the point for mods is to make the car unique and look good. Im 19 and drive the station wagon version with that being said. welcome to the site

Mid life crisis??? j/k man. Yeah I think when I'm 35 (28 now) I will still love my car, which ever one I have and I think I will still be interested in tuning and modifying it, it's a passion and if it's something you really like doing then I'm sure she will understand.

you're not too old until you can't turn a wench anymore.

that is young guys car and i am only doing the mods to feel young.

There's something you don't usually hear about our cars.

Don't sweat it. I'm 39 and I know I'm not the oldest member here. My wife is 29 and although she does occasionally think I spend too much time and money on the car, when I get a new part or finish a mod, she always says "Are you happy? Good." Tell your wife that she should be happy if it does make you feel young. Would she want to be married to a guy that felt old all the time? She can worry when you hit middle age, dump the savings account into a brand new Vette and start cruising the local malls.

Since when is an Accord a young guy's car?



Of course, if it causes a rift, you need to prioritize. In my case... the car won.

[wed3k]

we have two owners here in norcal that are pretty old...thats relative to my age.

[JARHEAD293]

dude u be surprised, there are a ton of memebers here older than us. not a matter of age but a matter of what u like

I'll be 31 soon, and I think it's healthy. It could be worse, you could be sitting on the couch or computer all day playing fantasy football. Or, you could be cheating on her. Seriously, some women need to think about the alternatives sometimes - not to mention try to be there to help build their man's confidence, not belittle him or criticize him.

As for mine, she rocks. She even helps sometimes!
