how do you know what a future classic car will be?

Clearly I don't have a clue about what will become valuable if you hang onto it......
My cars I wish I had kept:
1926 Model-T Roadster - pretty much a classic. Sold for $380 new (I got it used), no idea what they're going for now.
1926 Pontiac Roadster - Wood spoke wheels, 1st year for Pontiac, great car. Gave $100 for it - ran ok, but used a lot of gas. Now?
2 @ 1955 Fords - Better cars than 1955 Chevys, but not as valuable now?
1963 Mercury Meteor - probably the best car I ever had, but worthless now???
1965 Mustang 289 - $2342 cost new - present value?
1966 Corvette convertible, both tops, all options, 427CID, $3900 new. Traded the Mustang and $1900 for it. Now worth???
2003 Ranger XLT, my DD. $15000 new I'm going to keep it forever or $50,000 whichever comes first.

If that Vette had ALL the options, that would include shoulder belts (37 vettes in 66) and the 4 Spd HD transmission (15 that year) and it is worth enough to make a man suicidal now. lol

Pontiac G8 LS3 6speed.... That car is $$$$ now, it'll be the 454 SS 70' chevelle 30 years from now.

A lot of people don't realize we are once again in the muscle car/truck era. Many vehicles are 400+ HP (6.2/6.1L powered anything, Chev/Ford/Dodge) and they have the handling to back it up. A new diesel pickup with a good tuner and a few add ons will put a hurt on 95% of the 'muscle cars' of old.

Just look at the the design of the supra back in 93, it was way to advanced. Thats why the supra is still to this day one of the best looking cars around.

Toyota's Supra Turbo.
