Old car prices

I own a car that was made in 1970. That year, to qualify for the racing season, 300 special models were made of a road-going race car.
These were the Ford Falcon GTHO Phase 3s.

Over the intervening time their numbers have dwindled, yet some astute people put the ones that they owned away and loved them. They wear the original paint and have travelled a handful of miles.

Now they're being sold for $110 000.

Sure, you could build or buy a "better" car for much less. But you can't build a legend.
