It's a tough one, I get it. I am a big fan of making Pro and Con lists, then weighing each side and seeing which is longer. The classic car thing has inherent Cons..... stranded investment..... taking garage space..... precluding use of funds for other purpose, etc.
I am evaluating my situation. Not an equity car like a Goat or TA, Formy, etc. But I have other parameters also.... Moving over the next year to very remote area in New Mexico. 30 minutes to any premium. 2 hours to no ethanol. 4 hours to any hot rod shop. I have no garage at my place down there, need to build, regardless, but it is a huge urgency if I bring car. Bring car, oh yes..... Over 2K covered transport cost (1200 miles). Or, gulp, drive it.
I haven't decided, but I finally came to peace with the potential of selling by framing it as an opportunity later, if I have the need. Opportunity to get an equity car. Opportunity to get that 4 speed. Look for a no air car. Not the end of the world.
