I've restored and/or sold over 20 American Muscle cars over the past 2-3 years and in hind sight, every one sold to cheep. At the time I thought the price was right in line. But, I'd love to have that #'s 66 427 Vette back I sold for 47K or that #'s 69 X77 Z28 I sold for 37K. It seems like, if you buy the right car what ever you pay today will be less than you pay tomorrow. Old car appeal is generational and what ever cars the generation that drives the US economy in general loves will be the hot cars and will continue to be hot until that generation starts to die off (to be blunt about it). Then the next generation and the cars they love take over. God forbid. Right now Baby Boomers drive the US economy so the cars that Baby Boomers love, American Muscle cars are hot and IMO will continue to be so until we all start getting to old and senile to care. I think the big difference now than in the past is that this market is dominated by enthusiasts not investors. People that love these cars. I just can't see a significant %age of these people waking up one day and saying... Nah.....I'm not interested in these cars anymore ...I know I won't. IMO the market will be very viable for the next 7-10+ years. Just my .02 and 100% speculation.
