Why buy new junk?

I look around for yet another old sube, or the exotic synchro AWD (we can day dream)
I learned as my license is as old as my 87 sube
- oil has improved
- gas has improved
- filters have improved
- even car batteries..(my original sube battery leaked like all the others from that generation)
- I finally have a t-rated tread worth a nickel..20 years ago, and t-rated, anybody remember? they simply sucked.
- an old car was simply old stuff, today it does not have to be that way, with the same engine and gears...it can be a newer car.
The warmer climate areas have it made in the shade, the bodies hanging onto modern changes easily...and even then, I could add a mig welder to my list of changes that help old stuff (I have a 115v that does .25 inch thickness..20 years ago? no go)
