The Mecum Effect...Part of the Problem...or Part of the Solution???

While it's nice that the higher prices have driven manufacturers to make parts for our cars it's not even close to worth it. I would much rather have to scour junkyards and backyards looking for parts to complete a car then be able to put my car together from a catalog and have it worth so much you can't even drive it.

Personally I enjoyed the late 70's to early 80's when working on muscle cars was not socially acceptable and no one gave a nice old Mopar a second glance. Over the years I must have owned at least five different E-bodies. It makes me sick to think I can't afford one now and if I had one I couldn't park it anywhere.
