Good point. In 1980 I bought a '67 Deluxe Bus, with a gas heater, for $500.00. It wasn't perfect, but in very good shape. I sold it in 1982 for $500.00, having done nothing to it except brakes and oil changes-I thought I'd made a smokin' deal! I never would have guessed then what that bus could be worth today. And look at Dodge Challengers and it's twin, the Barracuda. I bet in the early 90's you have picked up a nice one for a few thousand-now they're going in the mid 100's!
