Don =========== Weather is a big factor. In California, you can see classic old cars on the road. No snow, no salt on the roads, etc., no rust. People not only collect old classic cars here, they also drive them around now and then. Even though I am not a car aficionado, I do get a thrill when I see a well maintained older one on the road. I've seen cars going back to model Ts all the way up to some great old 1950 classic cars. I suppose, car clueless as I am, some 1960 cars are now classics too. California seems to go very easy on older cars. Marnie aka Doe -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
