Vintage cars are just like fine wine. The more they age, the more beautiful they get, the more their value increases and the more you feel like driving them. Yes, you can’t drive wine but you get the point.
The only way you can get your hands on these timeless beauties is by either being born into a family who owns a vintage car, or by heading to an auction and buy one of these yourself. Just make sure you carry sacks of cash with you just to be prepared.
