"old cars become the focal point for a way of orienting to the world and finding meaning in it. As such, they enact a moral sensibility of stewardship, an outlook that values continuity."
"todays uninspiring models become tomorrows classics. Some of them do, anyway. Which ones, one cant really know in advance. It seems to take about one generation, or a progression in ones own life from car-enthralled childhood to regret-burdened adulthood, for sentiment to attach to the material things of ones youth. Ironically, the design churn dictated by technological progress provides the raw material for retro fascinationquirks to be cherished by enthusiasts a generation later."
