Waited 30 years For my Charger

[Nick 916]

I had a 1973 Charger that i loved while in my 20s.
Sold it like a dope, and after getting married raising my daughter, I swore i would someday get another Charger. Now in my 50s, I picked up my 74 SE a few months back and I LOVE IT!!! its never too late!! Who says you cant go back??????

74 was a pivotal year in my life.
I graduated from high school.
I have a 73 and 74 car too.
Rescued the 73 from a trailer park.
It was going through a bad divorce.
Saved the 74 from a junk yard and then 911 hit while I was building it.
We really can't go back.
I wish I could go back in my life, with some caveats.
But we do have our memories.
Good and bad.
What would you take for your memories?
Isn't that Alzheimers?
Jay Leno's idea is that these antique cars are art.
And they have other values too, I'm sure.
But my main contention is that they hold memories for many people.
If not for the important people in our life, do the cars really have any value to us?
In an episode of Doctor Who, objects that contain memories are used as currency.
