Back then in 1975 what were they saying about 67 to 72 trucks same as (50 years ago) what were they saying about a 50 3100 P/UP, 57 Vette, 57 Chevy, a 59 Caddy, I remember everything but the words classic and investment opportunity. If this were not so there would have been more survivors today. People bought and drove what they could afford or if money was not the main concern what they liked. Much as we do today.

My point .... buy what you like and if tomorrow it's a classic this is a cherry on top of your slice of the cake of automotive pleasure.

esll.

My first car was a 57 Chevy that cost me a whole $500.00 .... not the one in the picture but still a very nice car none the less. If the word classic was being used I would still have it today and I would be up a lot more $$$ then $500.00.
