Reply to "73??? Pantera for Sale"

I view many cars built before the mid 70's collectable. Cars then and before were of a caliber never to be seen again. To see this, look at BJ auctions, and cars shows. Watching a car show over the weekend having old 57 wagons of ALL types becoming collected and valued. Many cars at the auction not particularly valuable becoming very valuable in restored condition.

Cars after the mid 70's became what I call re-peats. All with less substance. Cars of today are tools. Use them, wear them out crush them, melt them down start over. Cars of the first 75 years were as much about us as a society, our development of technology, and our movement from the horse and buggy age into the modern age. These cars were meaningful albiet a 73 Pantera or a Ford Edsil. No new cars; even cars that make you go wow have any meaning like the old cars.
