Everyone agrees, the Mustangs are classic, but there *are* people who are
into Pintos.
I knew a family that was into them 30 years ago.
. . . and yet, the purveyors of Concourse D'Elegance welcome the
Mustang, and turn up their nose at a perfectly restored Pinto.
HERE, the criterion is the subjective "classic", not the objective
"age".
