Me too. I love classics from the 30's, 40's, and 50's but its cars of the 60's, 70's and 80's that I connect with. Especially late 70's and early 80's.

Doug, I did get this response from NEO...
"Please note it will take some time. As a Dutchman I will not promise you too much upfront, but eventually you will get rewarded with fine models we develop because we also like them ourselves as well. Chevy, Caddy, Lincoln, Ford, Plymouth, Chrysler, etc...we have a long list..."

An interesting post Douglas.
I remember wishing years ago for 50s models when everyone was making Veteran and Vintage cars. I think we've reached a watershed now when newer cars need to be made. However, it's a gamble and I admire NEO for going this way. As I'm probably a lot older than you, 70s and 80s cars don't seem old to me! I guess you are now at the stage where I was 20 years ago, wishing for 50s models.

Great! I love the character of these cars when seeing them on TV.
Someone would pull up and park, and go to the store, police station, toilet, etc. The car would still be bouncing up and down on its suspension when the owner returned!

John, I am 45 and would just love to have some models of cars I saw on the streets when I was growing up. Mostly cars of the 60's and 70's. I really started following new car news about 1975 and I remember so well being absolutely in love with the "new" 76 Seville and 77 Mark V. And then into the 80's with the 1980 Seville, 79-85 Elsorado, Toronado and Riviera, and the 81-83 Imperial. These were cars that fastinated me then and still do. I guess I will have to wait 20 years for those cars to be done in quantity. Then there will people in their 40's wanting cars of the 1990 and 2000's. Sorry, nothing there for me.
