Dan, when you mention your Willys as a "time machine" it reminds me of clip from a memorable old flick.? For a little nostalgia, you can see it on YouTube at 200 year old Volkswagen discovery scene from Woody Allen's "Sleeper" 1973.
I tend to think ahead too much, but as a person nearing the octogenarian stage, can't help but wonder how the next generations view old stock machinery.? I delude myself that restomoded vehicles will be the popular ones... foolish, realistic, deranged?
Cheers, PuN.
