Not a Fan of Electric Cars? Me either. What are we going to do?

Did you ever notice what happened to Zippo Lighters? Have you seen one flipped out of pair jeans pocket, top flipped open, the striker flicked, and flame engaged, lately. Probably not and it will be the same way with the gas combustion car.

The Zippo Lighter gave way to cheap plastic throw away lighters called Bics. Who would try to repair one of those or better yet have a collection of them?

Electric cars are probably here to stay and they will likely replace the gas combustion engine someday. Who’s going to love a rusted out crinkled mess of an electric car? Who will restore it to a work of art? They will probably go the way of Bic lighters; they will become a throw away.

So what are we, Classic Car Lovers, lovers of the rumble of a 427 Big Block, the embodiment of wisdom, to do? We have to find the works of art where ever they may be. Look high, look low, and look in garages and scour the barns do not leave any behind. Take them apart, rotisserie them, rebuild the engines, re-chrome, re-paint them, and preserve them into the future.

Then maybe someday in the future our grandchild will take his son out for a ride in this:
