Do you have one or more full-size classic cars in your collection?

Not anymore. Marriage and kids cost me my 1969 Camaro and 1969 Javelin. But I would say that it was worth it. Most days anyway. 😁

By the time I get rid of a car, it's an antique anyway.

No, and wouldn't if I won the lottery.

If I won the lottery I do have a mental list of cars I'd like to own for about 6 months and then trade in for the next one…

No. In high school I drove a 1969 Ford Gran Torino. White with red pin stripes. 4 barrel.
In college, the family car was an olive drab Shelby Cobra Convertible with a Mustang body. It is in a car museum in Alabama now.

No, got better things to do with my money, such as buy miniatures and food and pay the mortgage!

My Toyota 86 is a classic – best car I've ever owned.

This is for gamers, right?

I think that the classic car gig is more of a tech bro thing – we need to spend our cash on things like grandkids, electricity, food, etc – plus the tractor takes up most of the room in the barn!

No, Jay Leno beats me to them. Every. Time.

A car is a means to get from here to there. If they do that well and don't have issues, then for me that is all that matters. Don't care what they are.

I ride the bus.

No. Way outside of what I can afford.

Not interested at all, so no.
