The point is drive it, enjoy it, and if you break even or make a few bucks great, but it won't ever be some sort of windfall.

again you're suggesting I'm talking about sealing it in a garage and never driving it for the purpose of "flipping it for a profit" that's not the point at all. I don't ever intend to sell either one of these cars, but its still interesting discussion. Anybody buying a car for the sole purpose of investment is a fool, surely we can all agree on that.

And "never" is a long time. I'd imagine plenty of people in the 50s and 60s uttered that word when talking about their 2 or 3000 dollar cars that are now worth 10-30 times that.
