Virtually all aircooled Porsche, in good condition, have been appreciating since the early 2000s, and some since new. Watercooled GT2, GT3, same deal. Buy a GT2, drive it for five years, sell it for a profit.

My parents said they would split the price of a new Schwinn Varsity. I saved up my money and got a blue one that I loved in 1966. It was bomb proof but must t have weighed just under 40 lbs but it only cost a bit over $60.

Western Auto was the best. If I couldn't find something at the junkyard they usually carried it.

Good luck finding one, at least where I live.

You live in PA but no Sheetz or Wawa?

No Sheetz nearby. Lotsa Wawas, but often times the free air is broken. There are no gas stations around with air, which is a tragedy, but it's gone by the wayside over the years, much like the attendant who would clean your windshield while pumping your gas at 59 cents a gallon.
