Get out your wallets.....
This Friday. Sure would like to have one of these sitting next to the Westy. If only I would have known what these things would be worth 20 years ago.

Nope. I imagine I would prefer the Baywindow for comfort and handling. But for investment purposes...Amskeptic wrote:Ever driven one?Westy78 wrote:This Friday. Sure would like to have one of these sitting next to the Westy. If only I would have known jwhat these things would be worth 20 years ago.

Re: Get out your wallets.....
Any ideas on the next hot collector car? Something still relatively affordable these days. Bays and Vanagons aren't getting any cheaper.
I sold my '73 Bronco right before their value took off. I could have probably doubled my money by holding onto it for another 3-5 years.

I've heard that the prices on BMW E30 (80's? 3 series) are on the rise. Getting one that hasn't been beat to death is the hard part.

Try to buy a BMW from a devoted woman owner. Always much tighter driveline and usually a cleaner interior.

Ah, another auction. Should be interesting...
@ Colin: Good to know, I've been eying some of the wagons for a while now.

Yep, I drove several of them mostly a 64 until it was killed by rear ended a car and a 67 samba that suffered the same fate. Tin cans and I wouldn't want one these days and much prefer my bay. Driving my Ghia is enough flashback to the "way things were".
