What makes a classic?


This is my dad's 1960 J1 Bedford, and there's no other truck like it on the road. He's had it since around 1966.

It is a classic. Wherever he drives it (it's his work truck), people stop to look and admire.

So what makes a classic? Is it just age and condition? Or is it something about those flowing lines, speaking to us of a bygone (?) era of cars with personality?

Do you own a 'classic' of anything? What is it, and what makes it classic?
