SoCal may be an outlier but I see cars from the 40s and 50s on the road nearly every nice day. Folks here love these cars and drive them for fun. Several friends own cars dating back to early 1900 and come out for holidays and special occasions.
US cars from 1974-1989 were almost universally terrible in build quality, style, and performance. I doubt many will become valued collectibles. Honda, Toyota, Porsche, BMW were exceptions.
As a daily driver in the texting era I prefer modern safety features like door bars, 3 pt belts, airbags, hardened passenger compartment, and energy absorbing crumple zones. That means a car built after 1995 or so. I also appreciate modern A/C that works even across the desert in 110F heat.
