It was written:

"Classic" is . . .
"Vintage" is . . .
"Antique" is . . .

You've forgotten to argue over the meaning of "historic".

Or when a plain old "used car" becomes an "old car" (a lot of folks proudly
collect and restore old cars, but few admit to collecting used cars - and I
never heard anyone say they'd just finished restoring a used car).

And what's a "collector car"?

And when this fight dies down, we can all debate the distinctions between
"rebuilt cars", "restored cars", "remanufactured cars", "continuation cars",
"recreated cars" and "reproduction cars".

Carry on!
