Maybe the next time they see a forlorn 74 Hornet sedan sitting somewhere they'll think it just might make a good driver to keep miles off their favorite, or a 58 Ambo sitting behind a barn/in the woods and decide it could look like the one they saw at the show with "a little" work (we all know "a little" often turns into a boat load!). It won't help the real "elitist" who thinks that the pinnacle of AMC development and design was the Javelin (or two seat AMX), but it will help the average enthusiast.

On rethinking I now agree that you, and others who made this
point, are probably right.  Segregation probably is not a good
idea. If I had to guess, it's the one-model-obsessed who probably
push for segregation 'my car should be judged against others like
it'.
