41chevy Posted June 18, 2015 Share Posted June 18, 2015 Consoidering the rarity that's cheap, when you have Corvettes, Cobras, Camaros,Chevelles,Mopars and other rare but not as rare ones going from mid $800,000 to $3.5 million, make that almost affordable. IMO it's a waste if you keep it to your self or not use it once in a while.

hicrop10 Posted June 18, 2015 Share Posted June 18, 2015 That's the way I feel,why have it to keep stored up in your garage and every once in awhile bring your friends over and say look what I have.You can be damm sure of it if I own it it will be out and about.Took the 79 r model out to Sam's Club and did some food shopping for the wife.

Came home most of the way on 40. We also took my 1951 Victoria flattie powered 50's custom to Fords 100th anniversery in Dearborn. We had two vacations of a life time! Thats what they were built to do run the roads. We aksed an other couple to take their 1941 Olds on Rte 66. . . We got the "what if this happens blues" If it gets chipped...touch it up, smacked up...redo it, breaks down...fix it no matter what happens it is still woth it.I have a friend who has the Macy's Easter Parade Nash Metropolitan. In is kept on a climated controlled "garage" they sit in it and watch movies in a drive in themed set up. Never use it! What a waste.This was for the Hemmings article only time in 5 years it was out side..
