If you buy every mint 35 year old automobile off every widow and farmer for 10 years and wait another 25 years, you will be rolling dough. You do need 20 acres fenced with a 200 foot garage to keep the autos in good shape. Additional parts and maintenance will run 20K per year. Generally in civilized countries that will cost you about 35% of the asking price of the automobiles up front.

We know of one person that answered an ad in a Toronto newspaper for a used 15 year old GM auto. He showed up and there it was in the garage exactly where it had been parked all those years ago. The husband had bought it and died one month later. So he paid the widow 250 dollars and drove the Corvette Sting Ray home.
