Wow, someone on the forum that's older than me, good job deadhorse.
I was 14 going on 15, Just a tad young to be really involved but still old enough to know that it was a great era in time. Innocent pranks and the cops didn't seem to have a chip on there shoulder, fights were settled with fists instead of 9mms. Then the mid to late 60's when muscle cars were a dime a dozen. A little while ago I told each of my sons (now 19 and 26) "I wish I could take you in time for just one day to see how great it used to be".
Great movie,

We just had some cops graduate 12-14-07. and there's a big stink over there moto... that the public didn't hear about untill just recently......

This was in bold letters on the program for there graduation...

Damn! I was -5 in 1962....

But I remember Wolfman Jack! How about you?

Right on! Right on!

Wolfman Jack- the wolfman is buryed in his front yard right here in nc.
you can see his grave from the road --

i wasnt even considered a baby for another 17 years, wow

in a ball sac

I wasn't born for another 9 years. American Graffitti was based on 1962 Modesto California, that's my best recallection of the era.

I guess the direct answer is I was five years old and lived at home with my parents in a very small town in Utah in 62.

However, In 1973, when that movie came out ...

I lived in the same house in the same town and had just got my drivers license and had a job which kept my car full of gas and made me some date money for the weekend.
