I love stuff like this, that reminds of how close the past really is.

Isnt that amazing!
He looks like he'd still let ya know what for if ya tried him.

I'd like to think they found one with 2 seats and took him for a ride.

Very, very cool.

Then again, he'd have to have been 95 or 100.  Guess maybe he was.  Looks pretty spry for 100.

Hell he looks just like a bunch of guys on this forum.

Civil War was 1861-1865.

In the photo he's a 107!!!!

Well done Bill

We had a real son of a civil war soldier in my Sons of Confederate Veterans group. His dad fought at Gettysburg and fathered him at the age of 75. L.R. Goldman was his name he died in 1999 at the age of 99 his mind was all there even at the end. It was always fascinating talking to him. His dad was born in 1825.  Mind blowing yes but all true.
