“Could be”, but isn’t.
Oh, it may very well be, once it’s media blasted, missing body panels replaced, mechanicals refurbished and restored inside and out. One thing many people don’t seem to realize though, is that desirability and collectability comes and goes with age cohorts. The “hot” collectable cars of today are not those of yesterday, or tomorrow. There was a time when the ‘57 Chevy or T-Bird were stratospheric. Not so anymore, a perfect example still isn’t cheap but they’re not where they were. Same will be true for this. Baby Boomers won’t always be the dominant force, they’re fading already. Cars from the 70’s are starting to take off, for instance the boat tail Riviera, C body Trans Ams, even first generation Cadillac Sevilles. It comes and goes, in other words. Not a good idea to buy the hot collectable car of today for top dollar and hold onto it, in other words.
