    An even bigger market for muscle cars should be back within five to ten years......

    ... but relatively rural real estate within fifty to a hundred miles of a major city in the USA, Canada or Australia.... will be an even better investment......

    True, however,
    on the contrary, who will be able to afford real estate these days, as most young folk are finding it very difficult to get into the housing market with current median house prices in AUS.
    I have been looking into what you've described, you do get more bang for your buck in rural areas, unfortunately, it is not for everyone, especially for the young. To be able to afford anything these days
    you'd need a decent income, not only to purchase the property but to maintain it and the mortgage, then the utility bills and the basic cost of living on top of it all. A classic muscle car on the other hand
    doesn't need the consideration as real estate does. Sure, you'd need insurance and possibly registration for a classic car, but that is an annual expense. Real estate is on going.

    The majority of the population of AUS living in the 1st 3 cities on the list.

    It's illegal to produce and register anything like this anymore and always will be, so the supply is constantly going down as they get crashed or scrapped.

    Pre-ECU used cars are all likely to be worth a fortune in coming decades, as they will be the only way to avoid the mass surveillance in modern vehicles. They're the only cars which don't constantly beep at you and preach "please obey all traffic regulations". They're also far, far, far cheaper to service, though they generally use more fuel.
