    when your car is considered an antique legally, it's old school. That's 25 years old and older. This year it's 83 and older, next year, 84 and older, and so on. Eventually 2000 WILL be considered old school at some point. This makes the most since to me. When it's 2035, we're not going to STILL have the cutoff at 1985.

    ^^ Yeah, I drew a frame of a man running on each fan blade. That is him running at idle

    Oh? I thought the antique standard was 20 years? Guess I gotta re-up my standards.

    I'm talking about now. Not in 2035.

    Not quite. Almost, though.

    As far as cars being made outside the "cut off" year but being the same model as the ones that do qualify, that's hit or miss. I think it could be that an 86 model car that is the same thing as the 83 model would be grandfathered in.

    Later, QD.
