Default Re: how can we get the youth to be come involed in our hobby?

One of my grandson's classmates drives a '29 Tudor to school EVERYDAY. It's a driver, with a real "patina". Rain or snow, Anthony drives it!. I saw him one evening last week leaving a basketball game. The temp was 4 degrees above zero. Anthony came to have that car because someone was willing to sell it to him for a price He could afford. I see A's all the time offered for really inflated prices (you'd think it was a Barrett Jackson event) that might be able to get into the hands of a younger person, if the price were more realistic. How many "kids" (under 30 or 40) for that matter have 20K to blow on a toy? If they think they do, it's because they are making payments to the local Harley dealer. If you really care about the future of your car, be willing to sacrifice some of your "profit" to get it to the right buyer! The cars are the constant! The people come and go!
