Future of the hobby

as an older member who grew up with the cars, always wondering if any of the younger generation would care enough about the history of old cars. Yesterday my friend and I dealt with a 30 something “kid” and was truly impressed with his knowledge of the cars and interest in survivor cars. I have two sons of my own who could really care less about the cars (that’s ok) and just want to drive them! He ended up buying an engine from my friend, and my friend thought enough of him to say “would you like to see some of my cars?” He could not get over my friends original survivor 1973 340 4 speed Cuda that he ordered new and has 30000 miles on it, looking closely and all factory “mistakes lol” or the stuff my buddy has gathered over the past 4 decades! He ended up with a B body 18 spline four speed also. My friend gave him great deals and hopefully this young man will do the same for some young mopar guy in the future!
