Default Re: Future collectables

They rusted worse than a Vega. Most of the early imports did. The VW Beetle is highly collected, but in truth was a death trap. The gas tank was over your legs, and the seats had a nasty habit of breaking off the floor bolts in a rear end collision.
I posted a pic of a derelict '57 Nomad on another thread, but what will happen to all of the Tri-Five Chevy's in a few years?
Not many folks want to re-restore them.
Who will buy the BIG $$$ Hot Rods and Choppers when their owners have other priorities, and the kids have no interest.The future collectables will be the cars that are still around in enough numbers to make it worthwhile to restore, unless everything is running on hydrogen or electric by then. JMO.
