Re: ATTRITION RATE FOR 20 YR OLD CARS
Lots of old stuff around here. Probably hard to tell just by registration numbers, how many are left, or how many are really being used.

location, location, location.
I worked and still ive in a 30k+ city, north central maine...and knew I was the only one driving a 74 chevelle in 1994.
I knew I was the last one with a monte daily beaten.. that was only 1996 (they had much shorter lives than the last of the heavy guage steels).. in fact, they got alot of bad opinions, breaking frames and all kinds of stuff left for japanese stereotypes.
I am now the only crazy person driving a 23 yr old ten geared subaru with a 1 year paint code...
without a singular doubt.
my same scenario lasts longer in all the south states.
Heck, I remember wandering with friends around texas in 1993, and seeing a well dented 60s chevrolet packed full of poverty, cracked glass... and no doubt the owners only car. that same piece of crap around here is a totally different value.

people are putting them away,,
and alot of them now need work,,,
and might be garage art for a few years as they get redone..
also with so many out of work , or hours cut..
they might have had to park it for this season
