Just curious if someone can answer this;

How many restored or driving Model-As were on the road in;
A) 1954
B) 1974
C) 1994
D) 2014

Is the number greater in A or in D? How does the figures in B & C factor in??

Now repeat the same question with Model-Ts using those same dates;.....

And finally use any bodystyle of Model-A of your liking, and state an average price of that particular vehicle in the years A) B) C) & D). Which of those years has the highest value?

I'm pretty sure that if everyone is honest with themselves, they would agree that each couple of decades saw the price of the cars increase, ...and in each of those decades, there was always a supply of Model-A or Ts that filled the demand of the hobbyists who truly wanted one. I see this being no different 20 years down the road from now.

Now for just a little giggle, how many restoration shops were around in the above years A) B) C) & D)?

I can definitely tell you the answer to that one is 'D' too. Therefore for those that say the car culture society is dying out, the number of businesses whose services are offered to the car culture sure are not indicative of that thought.
