The future

Everything evolves, and runs in cycles. Look at the big auctions. Few pe war cars selling, and it takes a special ne to bring bigger bucks. The demographis change. Look at the Porche, the somewhat later models that a few years ago were jst ued cars, are starting to climb because not every one in that crowd an afford the really collectable one.
Everyone wants to keep their youth as they get older. Buy that car they used to have, never had, get that young wife that makes them feel like they are "her" ago, and now they can afford her and her "costs"!... The stangs, challengers, camaros of today will be bought by people 15-20 years from now!!
One year the old mopars are hot, the next they are not, maybe sorta like how the stock market works for those people with $$!????
Compare our car hobby to the horse. OK so bear with me. Cave man figured how he could actually ride him and save shoe leather, get from here to way yoner, fight the enemy, then sed him to plow the field and make food, then the auto and tractor came along back in late 1800's ( NO I was alive then!). We go from millions of horses and mules to wayyyyyy not so many. Then the people got better cars and make more $ at their job, and the movie invents the story of the cowboy, and boom the horse is now mostly a recreation deal. The dude ranch is invented the horse becomes a toy for most, a luxury.
Horse competitions, races grow by leap and bonds, the horse has become a business,and some worth a lot of money! They are affordable for many. Still a necessity for the rancher in many states though. Fast forward to today. The breed associations are crying, not as man being bred, their revenue is suffering, some competitions are down.
The modern kid that is not ranch raised , lives in the burbs with parents that lived in the burbs, and further back. Mom does not want to spend the $$$ it takes for the kid that thinks she is horse crazy. So they do all the teams sports, and buy them all the video toys. Wayyy cheaper.
Old cars are cheap projects to buy, and expensive to restore or even get safely on the highway. Easier for mom the buy the kid a somewhat modern driver, than the family to get into the hobby of building the kid a car!! Yes mom should be part of the equation IF the kid gets an old car and become part four hobby!!
Cycles, the horse deal today, is rebounding again. All part of the "cycle"....
