      Well, the 'Bird is worth a bazillion dollars, but we'll hold that one for now.
      I really wish I had the three '57 Chevys now. The two Pintos are pricier now than one would think.
      The '42 Plymouth and '54 Packard are difficult to price, but rarer and, no doubt, quite pricy.
      The two Volvo 1800ESs are bringing mid $thousand teens or more. Not worth squat when I sold them.
      The others will have their day, especially the earlier Jeep Cherokees.
      The Volvo 780 hasn't begun to gain value yet, but give it 5-10 years.

        Alamobird mentioned interest paid and it got me thinking about the 70s when I had about 10 years where credit cards were my salvation, or so it seemed. Anyone who started their career as a commission salesman may relate. The draw against commissions was never enough to cover the monthly nut. So "charge it" was the way to stay current on mortgage payments. Then when the Fork Lifts, and other material handling stuff sold was delivered, the commissions rolled in and the cards were paid off.

        It was so much easier when securities are sold they don't have to be manufactured and I was paid in full every month.

        And now when I use a credit card they pay me to use it, isn't America a great country?
