I am noticing the same thing...I'm 48, my brother is 45. We got involved in the hobby because of our Dad and grew up around Camaro's Corvettes, Chevelles, etc. We both had (and still own) our first musclecars (Camaro and Chevelle) when we got our drivers licenses.


Most of the people at the swap meets and shows we frequent are around our dad's age/generation. We went to a Cars and Coffee in Peoria IL a few weekends ago and the younger people in attendance all were driving/hanging around newer Mustangs/Camaros/Imports. I'm sure this shift in interest will be seen eventually on the demand side of the pricing issue, if not already. I also agree that good cars will always bring good money, especially as the number of quality cars (survivor's especially) diminishes.
