Just like Model A's, 40 Fords, 55 Chevrolet's, 62 Impala's, 70 Chevelle's, etc. Most are lucky you can buy parts for these cars, try that for a 58 Buick, or 64 Cadillac, etc. The crowd that loves those cars are dying off, and the value going down, because these young guys dont want them, dont know how to work on them, parts getting hard/impossible to find. Most mechanical parts are easy, but finding the small parts and interior parts is what gets you. Some want to relive their youth, and that's all fine, but the retiring people today had really BORING cars back then. I graduated HS 1980, a few got new Camaro's for gifts, but there wasn't many cars to be excited about. I drove a 56 3100 Chevy Truck then traded it for a 67 GTO, I bought my 68 Firebird in 1985 and everyone thought i was stupid for getting a old car.
