Default Re: Declining collector car market ??

Agree with youz guys.Like any other passionate hobby the deeper you get the more discriminating and refined those interests become.Lots of boomers bought muscle as a rennaisance to their youth,and that certainly allowed for the "all boats rise with the tide" effect of the last few years.The percentage of people who own them know relatively very little(or even care)about the stuff we are rabidily uncompromising about.So yes,the clones will continue to remain soft and the pedigree cars will hold their water because there are a limited amount of them in circulation,and enough purists with uncompromising taste.This doesn't even address the increasing costs of restoration-so a done car that's "all there" will not only offer instant gratification,the costs are finite,not to mention the anguish of waiting two years to enjoy it.
Of course for some the joy IS the restoration!
