Talking Meet the Oldest Owner

I would like to formally introduce the oldest owner. This is Joe Ryan from Northeast Pennsylvania. He is 90 years old and still going strong. We met today for a photo shoot but unfortunately it was raining and my camera quit after 2 shots. So this is it....for now. He and I will be meeting again. JOe does have a computer at home and he is getting help to join the network. So lets all give him a warm welcome.......

I am a pessimistic optimistic. I think the worst is going to happen, that way when it does, i don't feel as bad, but if the best happens, i am twice as happy.

Welcome to the board Joe.

You may be the oldest here, but Randy looks older.

















Sorry

LMAO!!

Does Joe have any trouble gettin' in and out of the SVX? I mean, it isn't easy no matter how old you are. And... does Joe have a nice lead foot matched for his SVX?

The SVX might be a little more difficult to enter/exit because of its height, but it's considerably easier than any other sportscar of its time. The opening is very tall compared to, say, a 3000GT.

I only hope I look as good as Joe when I'm 90.

And you, Andy, I'll tend to you later.

I had to laugh from a response posted above in this thread from Bobb.... Not only will you feel like a kid in here but you'll actually talk to a few who act like kids!

New members rule!

I thought that "PDSides" (Preston) was the oldest SVXer even though he doesn't have his SVX anymore.
