Classic?
My dad has an 85' Chevorlet Celebirty, it's in showroom condition. It has about 2 nicks from rock's hitting it (very small). No rust or anything. Has 25,000 miles, and the first year he had it, he put on 12,000. Everything is original, Ecept Tires/brakes/Sparkplugs (they are numbered to which cylinder they went to) And when I say original I mean orihinal all the way down to the windshield wiper fluid ( )
We have the battery dissconnected since we dont use the car (been sitting for 4 years) And we try to start it up every 3 months. I know it's nothing special to you guys, but it kinda has centimental value to me/my dad. The only problem is that since it has been sitting the headliner has fallen down. Do you think it will be worth anything in the future, because I mean whenever you see one, it is all rusted out and stuff, and it should be worth alot if it's like 1 out of 100 good condition car's, right? |

Wait seven years, then see what happens. It's still going to be a while before this vehicle will be "collectable" (in which case a good condition one would probably be worth something) but I don't know if it'll be regaurded as a classic, I think few 1980's American cars will be.

I thought classic had to be 15 years old, and no longer being made?

Well here in pa, it is 15 years and no longer made for a classic, and an antique has to be 20 years old. |
