Collector Cars of the future what will they be? Well did everybody know that NPD (National Parts Depot) will be releasing their new parts and accessories catalog this month on 1979-1993 Mustangs I live around the block from the Canton Michigan location. They have been keeping my '73 Cougar going for the past 15 years. as they do not care Cougar parts , but everything that makes it run, crosses over from the Ford Mustang. They also have 48-96 Ford Trucks, 55-57 T-birds, 64-72 GTO, Tempest, 67-81 Camaros, 67-81 Pontiac Firebirds, and 64-87 Chevelles All Collector cars!
The Fox bodies are next to be restored and enjoyed. Plus Mercury is going this month which I feel will make our cars future collectibles.
LIMITED PRODUCTION! and RARE!
Back in 1992 I lived in Redford Michigan with my Wife in our first home. Small 800 sq feet with a very large 3 car garage in the back that was fenced in. My wife's uncle calls me and asked if he could store his 1965 ford mustang 2+2 Fastback with a 289 4BB 4speed "K code" in my garage. I said "sure" no problem. It was orange with a black interior no Rust. The front fenders had been replaced and the whole car was painted.
It drove great and needed just little detailing and trim work. It was a sharp car. BUT! do the math......... That car was (at that time) just 27 years old! He asked me one day if I could sell it for him, because he needed the cash. After about a month in the summer of
1992 I sold that car for only............$3000............... that's what it was worth at that time, Well the ASC Mclarens are now in this same time as that 1965 Mustang was. So I feel our cars will take off in the next 5 years.
Enjoy the ride! Chris

I'd like our cars to go up in value, but I love it just the same and plan on keeping it for a long time.
