In my opinion, most desireable and valuable classic cars are the ones nobody wanted after they got a little worn out. In almost every instance, after a few years nobody wanted the Cobras, Vettes, Jags, Hemi Cudas and GTX's, big block Chevelles and Shelby Mustangs, among many others. The cost to keep these cars running and insured was prohibitive to many car guys, and speculators were pretty much unknown back then.
Most cars MADE to be classics and collectable just never made it. Just like baseball cards.
