Agreed with everyone writing on here. Im definately not in it for the money. I love working with my bird. I could have gone out and bought any other car restored but then i would have no attachment to it. I love my bird and i never plan on getting rid of her. And i do plan on driving her all the time. As for the car which this thread was started with, that i why im holding to my position that our firebird prices will sky-rocket along with everything else. you have many uneducated buyers in this market that will pay anything so they can tell there friends that they have an old car. Im not saying there is anything wrong with that but if a first gen conv just went for 10K and needs say 15k+ do the math. and it wont be worth that when your done with it. however, as time goes on, there arent many on the market restored, you have to buy em like that conv. so dont be surprised when more and more firebirds in poor condition go for those prices.
