64 here, fell in love with the 1976 Chevy Sport stepside when I was 18, finally got a stepper a few gears ago, but it was a 78, couldn't find a 76 for a decent price.
You need to come over and see my 76. I have been buying a lot of AMD sheet metal to make the repairs. After I get the lift kit and engine back in my 79 ( wife thinks it’s hers..haha) I will be starting on my 76. It even has the factory 400 small block in it. I have wanted that exact truck since I was a little boy and saw an orange one in a parking lot. I have never seen one in real life except that orange one when I was 10 years old. At 53, my wife found my dream truck. Can’t wait to start on it.

You can often guess a man's age by seeing the condition of his square body.

Stock=age 40+

Tastefully built hot rod=age 40+

Slammed to the ground, with expensive air bag system= age 25-35

Lifted to the sky, with obnoxious paint color, gigantic shiny wheels with tires that rival the thickness of a rubber band, and LED lights stuck in places they really don't need to be= age 18-25
Thats not true.... mine aint slammed or bagged... just sitting, rotting away lol

Honestly, none correlate with me either. I keep my trucks mostly stock with minor performance and creature comfort ugrades. I am young enough to be the grandson of many members here lol.

Like many other examples of research and study, the presence of a trend does not confirm the existence of a set rule.

Nothing I own besides my wife's equinox is stock lol, everything's been motor, trans, or rear end swapped, tuned, or completely built by me.

Ask the members here, I rarely just buy stuff and bolt it to anything I own i either make it myself or modify it.

I have my own touch on everything I have, but none of it is lowered or on bro truck wheels.

It's either big tires, big motors, or proportional tire-wheel ratio

I.e. , 15" rims on a 31" tire.

Take a guess...

Some of you guys may know...


And dont be giving it it away there Ted, Haha.
Ok I'll take a stab. I'm going to give a range first. 25 - 35.

My reasoning, please do not be offended if I'm way off on this. You come across as a very intelligent man and willing help others out, which generally I'd say makes a person older. It's not that younger people can't be all off those things, but with age comes life lessons and knowledge. But, from what you have said and pictures you have posted I'm very much under the impression that your a younger person and by younger I mean younger than me. And you have been around long enough to accumulate stuff.

So if I have to go with an exact age I'm going to guess 32. But won't be surprised if it's anywhere from 25 - 35.

And since I haven't said I'm 56 I think. That's pretty close anyway.
