A friend of mine puts on a car show every September to benefit a high school football team.  Seems like a good way to combine the two and hopefully create some interest.  Could be done as a fundraiser for any youth group.

In Europe more and more cities ban old cars from the road due to exhaust emissions. Emission, safety and noise laws become stricter every year. In the not so far future it might become impossible to drive classic cars on public roads anymore. It is sad I know, but most politicians do not care about classic cars.
For this reason I drive my classic cars as often as possible. I use them even for holiday travels and business trips. If you can't drive them anymore, the value will drop.

So sorry to hear that is happening in Europe amongst other travesties, but as far as values going down truly dont believe they will.

You have a limited amount of original inventory,  that's it no more

Ttruly cant count any of the continuation vehicles as originals because they are just that, copies ...

To have a real shelby from the 1960s 70 era is like having a rare coin

Hoping the European situations get better.

Vern,  Can I get in line with you?    I am going on a strong 34 years over here and still searching for a Shelby.   :)  Also, I have just a little over two acres and only one shop.  There is still plenty of time to build more shops to store more cars.   ;D
