Like being married to Shania Twain.
These pop up now & then in all car makes. Somebody believing a car will become a sought after collectable. So they buy it for the wrong reason, store it away. I guess that's fine if you have the 30 or more years it takes for most to become sought after, as long as one realizes many cars don't make it.

Overheard at a PCA Parade concours area long ago, a young teen looking at a 930:

"Wow, this car has 600 miles on it."

930 owner, proudly; "Yes. Documented."

Kid: "Isn't that like being married to Bo Derek and all you do is give her a bath?"

Mods...yep, many Mustangs are modded. Yet when buyers looking for a specific model, they seem to want original. Go figure.
