>From Jim Higgins -
You have hit this right on the mark....<<snip>>...Generally speaking, if I
can buy a car cheap and do a basic rebuild... the car is usually worth
about what I have invested at the
end and then begins to depreciate as the new bits begin to age.
Just as a new car depreciates with use, so too do these "classics".
Unless you want to carry the car around on a trailer from show to show
or put it behind ropes in a museum, these cars will wear out...
Even then, they deteriorate. ' Might as well drive 'em. Heck, folks -
it's all taxi fare. It's going to cost you $X+ for transportation in this
life. The only decision is how you're going to spend it.
