Did you see the kid that won the plum crazy Hemi Road Runner? Maybe it's just me but I thought he looked pretty young. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/dunno.gif

Just like the kid last year who kept egging daddy on to spend $275K on the black '68 Shelby convert.

Pacecarjeff, You are describing many of us, 20 years from now. I'll be turning 80. Perish the thought. Might just have our car restored by then. The only true way to get hooked on Musclecars is to ride in one. Sadly, the nicer ones are being stored away in museums, warehouses and enclosed trailers, never to see the highways again. We need to take any an all young people for a ride. Once experienced, these cars won't be forgotten. I can pretty well guarantee that. Back in about 1973, I took a long haired kid for a ride in our COPO Chevelle. By accident, I met him 20 years later. You guessed it. He is a dyed in wool Chevy guy now with a 383 stroker motor '67 Chevy II and a '64 Chevelle drag car. His first ride in the old Chevelle still puts a smile on his face when we talk about it. You can't explain it to kids. They have to experience it to appreciate it. Give a kid a ride. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/burnout.gif

I hardly think so . The guys who bought these cars werent kids...they were 100k cars ! In 20 years they will be forgotten like a lot of this stuff. The magic of the 60's will never be repeated...Mr Norm and Yenko were in a different league IMO.

80? - I'm 10 years behind you.
The only way I will stop driving is when I can't push down the gas pedal anymore.

Model T's got very cheap when that generation died out.
The muscle cars are a different breed. Flashy colors, big motors. They will a;so be popular with the next generations - only if they can afford to own one.
At this rate of price increases, all the good ones will be for display only.

I agree 100% - give a kid a ride in your muscle car.

Hope we can still find gas in 20 years.
You could always pull out your Hemi, and drop in a Turbolectric special.

Race fuel will be availble for quite awhile. I can't imagine electric cars at a NHRA event.

NHRA has had rules in place for electric cars for a bit...they're in my '02 rulebook...
