It all depends on what the definition of "Old" is ... In my book the Horseless Carriage defines "Old" as 1915 and older. In that case I own only fours cars that fall into that classification. Two Cadillac's and Two Buick's.
On the the other hand the AACA defines an antique car as being 25 years old or older. That's a model year 1998 and older. That's a whole different story. Covering over 80 plus more years. Needless to say I've acquired many more in that time period. More than I care to count. Indeed I have that defective car collecting gene.

In my mind it makes sense to drive an older cars today. Besides having a low purchase price. They are far simpler less expensive to keep the running.

I could not agree more! I recall having this same discussion with a co-worker in the late 1980's.

Exactly why I have it. Simple hand tools and diy knowledge and your set.
