You gotta remember, though, these weren't considered collector cars back then...they were just your ordinary transportation. Some would just get you there faster!

It's a LOT different these days. People will buy up anything they think might be a collector's item. Need I mention the whole '78 Pace Car fiasco? Heck, right here in our podunk Missouri town is a '78 Pacer with like 5k miles or something. Does that make it valuble? Not hardly...it's still a '78 Corvette, and everyone and their brother parked 'em thinking they'd go through the roof. I think a lot of '02 F-bodies will see a similar fate.
