Which of these three music-inspiring cars appreciated most?
For years, musicians have written great songs about the open road and the vehicles that follow the white lines around the bend.
And, naturally, sentimental collectors want the cars that remind them of those songs.
On a recent episode of CNBC’s “Jay Leno’s Garage,” world-renowned auto appraiser (and trained opera singer) Donald Osborne met with Jay Leno to look at three cars, each of which once functioned as inspiration, to see which one has appreciated best.
With three months to go before the show opens its doors, the event organisers are scouring the globe to find the world’s most desirable classics under the 10 headings: saloon, coupé, convertible, sports car, supercar, hatchback, shooting brake or woodie, sports racer, single-seater and aerodynamic pioneer or streamliner.
“Nationals” implies the cars within are the best in the country, and in this case it that seemed true. Entries came from all over North America, and they were top notch. Most are reference-grade quality, a great place to find out how your car should look when properly restored.
Can investing in classic cars drive decent returns?
Classic cars have obvious aesthetic appeal, but what about looking at them in terms of an investment?
It’s a question that divides the investment world. Those in favour argue the value of rare automobiles will increase (and all returns are free of capital gains Ttx); those against insist it’s difficult to generate a decent return.

The Bentley SSS C2 race car manufactured in 1965 is a rare find with only two units ever built, although neither vehicle was ever raced formally. There is one of them in the Bentley museum in the U.K., and the other, imaged below, has recently been sold, "Somewhere in the U.S.A.", is all I could come up with.
