My comment on who will be fixing our '62-'65 cars can be looked at this 
way.The current average age of ownership grows older every year.There 
will always be younger guys fixing them up...just like Model A's but the 
guys who want to rebuild them as they remember them will be 
dwindling.Time is the enemy to not just the cars.
