I agree with Steve, doubt there are any hard science
references. We are the last generation of antique car collectors/nuts. We grew
up with them, this generation did not. At car shows that allow newer cars, they
are todays muscle cars. If you notice at a car show the only “young people” are
the grand kids we bring. Steve, your car is reasonably priced, what you have in
it does not effect the price, its only what a “buyer” will pay. Many “deals” out
there as the kids sell off their parents “toys” You see it on E bay all the
time. First time the vehicle is listed for $30K next time $18K.
The one thing that has effected me personally is the price of
gas. All the vehicles I have owned were drivers, built to drive and enjoy. The
major reason I sold/traded my 65 Satellite was the 8-10 mpg 440. It was a
pitiful fact that I could trailer it cheaper than drive it ! My present project,
my 1966 AMC American convertible, (Rambler) is a 25 mpg vehicle. This year I can
afford to drive it to Denver, to a AMC Show and on to Omaha to the Geezer Drags.
The only way you can do this now days is to go with EFI.
Just my $.02...(if we are counting money)

Steve - do you have any hard science references to support your
speculation?
I've often pondered if I will be able to unload my '65s at a decent price
when the time comes that I want/need to sell them off. I have speculated
exactly what you said (lack of buyers and more interest in modern
tuners/muscle.)
Sorry to see you're still unable to sell you Polara Akron
