78, with some city miles.
I'm a late Fall '52 model, and these days feeling all the miles since....
Fall of 1959
Like Bryan Adams said.... it was the summer of 69
1951 was a very good year for new models. 2020 and things are falling off quick!
Late summer '53. Lots of miles yet to go.
September, 1970.
My grandpa took my mom out to buy a car shortly after I was born. He wanted her to have something build tough inside and out to protect my mom and I, and it had to be a V-8. (Back then we didn't wear seat belts!) ?????ÿ
My favorite car to ever exist on this planet...My Sharlet. A 1971 Dodge Demon. Built in September 1970, according to the sticker that was inside the door. ???? My mom named her "Sharlet" because she did not like the name "Demon". She popped off all of the Demon logos and turned them upside down. Mom would always forget to change her oil Dad would do it and tell my mom "This car runs on love. You had NO OIL IN IT!! DO YOU REALIZE WHAT YOU COULD HAVE DONE TO THIS CAR?!" ???
On my 18th birthday I was gifted Sharlet. We had a many fun adventures until 1997 when I had to give her up to pay for Wendells treatment. The professional helping Wendell knew we didn't have a lot of money, always loved my car, so he took her in trade for treatment. He would let me come and visit her as much as I wanted. I found out he passed away in 2006. ??? But what he did to my car...wow!!! He turned her into a beautiful hot rod!!! ???ÿ
I'd give anything to find this car again and get her back. ???
Here's a few pics of her from when I was a tiny kid to age 17 then to when I last saw her in 2013.
(Yes, I had pet pigeons!!) ?????ÿ

1955...just like Ford Motor Company's famous Crown Victoria Skyliner, AKA "Glasstop Vicky".
You have the VIN so it should be fairly easy for someone skilled in vehicle tracking so long as your stated willingness to "give anything to get her back" is sincere. Of course you would have to spend some money to track it down.

August '81
Summer of 1960 in NW Indiana. But it's not the years, it's the mileage.

July 1952. Thought my time was up at 50, but here comes another birthday. I'm the oldest. Just 2 of four children left. I rode a bike in New Orleans until I was 25. New Orleans was a great place to live in the 60s and 70s. Never want to live ever again. The food is still good, but the city sucks. Oh well, what a life. ?????ÿ
