Looks like a great deal. I'm 19 and just got my first one, a 78 in september, it finally runs now thanks to informative people on my island =)

I will take some pics tomorrow when its nice out, since I jacked camera back from my mom.

I also think since were young we should include our insurance rates, for laughs.

about $220 a month for my vette.

I don't have my car insured because the engine/trans/interior are out and it's not driveable. Still working on restoring it.

Bought it 2 years ago when I was 24. Actually cheaper to insure than my '77 Ventura, but now with comp it has gone up, maybe $50 a month. Not too bad when it's only insured about 6 months of the year.
