Don't count on it. I always think back to when I was a kid (I'm 41 now) and going to swap meets and car shows with my dad in the mid 80's. Back then everyone was looking for 69 Camaros, 57 Chevy's, and just about any year Chevelle SS or GTO. Sure the prices were lower, but that's what everyone wanted. That was 30-35 years ago. Dad used to tell me that someday when I was his age i'd be restoring cars like his new (at the time) Iroc-Z Camaro... but today (for the most part) people aren't looking for 80's cars to restore at all. They're looking for the same 69 Camaros, tri-5 chevy's and Chevelles/GTO's they were looking for 35 years ago... except there are far fewer projects to be found, far less NOS parts still around, and far more ill fitting reproduction parts available. I believe the popular cars will still be popular 10 years from now, and even harder to find NOS and original parts for.

If you're sitting around thinking all this stuff that's expensive now is going to get cheaper in a decade I think you're in for a disappointment. I'd love if everything people are into now became affordable and you could buy 70 Chevelles and 69 Z's for half price, and NOS GM parts for pennies on the dollar... but I don't think it's gonna happen.
