True car people are becoming a thing of the past
We go to two or three different cruise nights each week. I have four friends who usually show up, we walk around and then sit and bullshit, while people walk past to see the cars. The lookers who are mostly 30/40 year old's who look and nod, very little conversation. The conversations come from the baby boomers (old goats like me ) who get into the past when they had (fill in the blank) and we enjoy those people the most. Let's face it a lot of boomer generation is leaving the planet daily. I've been to three funerals in the past six weeks. Not saying the people who follow us in age aren't interested, it's that there aren't as many interested. We were growing up with them. Not knocking the younger guys here, just says there is not as many out there.
Maybe the hobby in my area, being about a six month thing, is slowly dying because of the limited time to attend the shows. Maybe it's a generational thing. I bought a '83 Camaro this summer and the boomer glance, but the younger guys look more interested in it. So I guess the next generation will pass on the muscle car era and look to 80's and up cars. Too bad for them :) :)
