Well said,

I'm just thankful the prices are low.  I love the cars and more than likely 
will NEVER be able to buy another Challenger R/T.  It was easy when I graduated 
in 1974.  
I got my 87 GLHS for $1,500 a year ago.  This was after a guy I know bought 
it off ebay and made at least $400 profit.  I was happy to pay that.   This car 
had 50,894 actual miles at that time.  It needs paint and a bit of work, but 
it's pretty solid.  

I believe the glhs,iroc r/t`s,and possible the daytona shelby just becasue of 
the looks will go up slightly but the old musclecars were actually pretty 
fast from the factory unlike most TD`s. Td`s even have a bad rep in the mopar 
community.
I just don`t see these going up in value a lot because you can get GN`s and 
SRT-4`s all day long and their performance overall is a lot better.
It`s just like the shelby dakota values being low.Why spend that kind of cash 
on a truck that slower than a lot of v6`s that you can barely drive because 
of the seating position and no extended cab.You can get a dakota r/t if you 
want speed.
I really wish during the late 80`s and early 90`s I would have spent a little 
more time hunting for challengers and cuda`s instead of getting multiple TD`s.
I originally got my cuda in 1987 and even with it needing a lot of work I 
turned down 44k just last week for it mainly because I know that I`d never be 
able to get another one even though I wanted that Jeep SRT-8 very badly.I`m 
pretty sure that no turbo dodge will ever double the sticker price it 
originally 
sold for.
