Default Re: Interesting Collection

Very interesting. Especially the story about the 70 year owner of that car in Paris where the owner took the wheels off the car to hide it from the Nazi's.

Brings me to an interesting subject. I wonder if guys my age (in there 20's) are really going to care about these cars someday with there VERY heafty price tags. For example I was viewing Mr. Ed's car collection and he was proudly explaining all these one off pre war cars. There was one that he was explaining to me that had WON Pebble Beach and that the car was valued at over $1,000,000! That whole time I was looking out of the corner of my eye at his 57 Chevy Belair Fuel Injection car or his all original 69 427 435 HP Corvette that is said to be last 427 435 car ever produced. I personally would not give $20,000 for one of those pre war cars that are said to be worth 1 mil+. Who will those cars appeal to in the future? What do you guys think?
