True that Keith,

And for some of us, we own these cars purely for the joy of building a collectible car, performing a frame off restoration, while for some it's purely for driving or showing a car without perhaps having the skills to build or maintain one. For others, it's the thrill of the hunt in finding a car, or the rush that some get from selling a car. Finally, there are those who simply become attached, as well as those who have that sentimental bond created when a car is passed down. All of this keeps us pinned to these marvelous machines and for that we can all be thankful that we share in this common interest group.

As for current markets, it will definitely be of interest to those like myself who enjoy buying, building and selling cars once complete, and it will also be of significant interest to those who are considering selling off a collection. I myself have struggled with the idea of finally keeping one of my builds for myself, and just when I think I have won the battle where I decide to keep one, I find myself looking at the current markets and contemplating yet another potential sale. (lol)

I surmise, some of us cannot be helped. The current market is definitely great for selling, but the hard thing now is how to replace something once it's sold. We all have our reasons I guess?
