preach it doc.
under normal (normal being that which excludes any collectability or desirability) circumstances, a car's depreciation never stops. At some point it will become totally worthless. Even the parts will have no value as parts. Once that happens the car usually finds a sucker to own it or an overgrown wood chipper/crusher.
If you want to see normal, then take a normal car as your example. Like... an 86 Hyundai Excel. That was normal in 86. Would you pay even 50 bucks for an example of one in "average" shape for its vintage?
Cars much like large naval guns and women are not investments and they never grow in value (excluding certain special examples). No matter how much fun they bring you they're always just a money pit.
