Crap. One of the biggest motivating factors for going to see my in-laws was that I was gonna go to that museum.

I taught Auto Tech for 30 years right up until I retired in 2017. The younger generation could care less about these older muscle cars. They have nothing to do with their generation! Believe me I heard the conversations in the shop every day and it was all about Honda's and Subaru WRX no interest in this stuff. During the summer I went to Home Depot to pick up some of my online order that came in shipped to the store. I had my C7 and when I got there the young girl behind the counter informed me my bathroom medicine cabinet also had arrived. I told her I couldn't pick that up right now because I have my Corvette and it won't fit in the car. She said, "what's a Corvette'? So, try to sell her a 63 Split Window Coupe for a $1,000, no thanks, I'd rather have the Subaru WRX STI with the coke bottle mufflers!

Sorry I never got there. I don’t think classics are declining that bad. Kids of the ‘70’s love these cars and they are age 50 to 60 and they have money. There’s another 20 good years left.
