Question
Hello Brad,I have this camaro convertible since 1994 and it needs alot of work,i was told to fix it and hang on to it,now is it worth it?It's going on 20years, when is it conspired a classic?

Answer
A car is considered an antique when it reach 25 years old. The Classic designation is used on specific makes and models as defined by one or more of several automobile organizations. As to how much it is worth depends on a lot of things starting with what the car was equipped with when new. Does it still have the origional engine, transmission, drive line? How much rust is involved and how much would you have to spend to bring it to new car condition?  It depends, but make sure that you are not going to invest more in the car than it will ever be worth.
