Don't you think that time is near on over, thats to say what the mid 20's of today on won't even care of them for starters but associate with the plastic GT's/F6's/Sprints etcetc....
Just food for thought for all you "experts" of old and I know better.
I grew up the era myself, none of my kids give a toss of the HO and in part to some the "GT" fable whilst at it, and believe me I have have talked and talked about the late '60's '70's being the golden eras but mean jack shi T to them.
Don't under estimate the future plastics (I6T etc) - don't care what they maybe worth but things like the HO may last forever (to a small minority) but most in the future won't give a damn.
Times do change - factory is closing for eg.

I'd better relay that information to my 14 to 17 year old automotive students who love the old muscle cars, and to the young grade 12 miss who bought a restored XK ute for her first car...
