I own a GMC Motorhome from the 1970's, and almost every owner of them is extremely helpful and friendly as well.

Here is the flip side of the "support your fellow collectors" experience: A couple of years ago, I sold my 1960's Sears Lady Kenmore chocolate-brown washer and dryer on Ebay. Really, I only put them on there because I figured it could be cheaper than paying the dump. Well, I started getting all kinds of questions about them-asking for the exact model numbers, verifying other details, and so on. There were a couple dozen or more "auction watchers" for them as the end date got closer. But, when the auction ended, I had exactly one bid, for my $9.99 minimum. The buyer was from out of state, and he had a trucking company pick them up, and he said he had been looking for machines in that color for years. I figured what had happened is exactly what was described above, that there was a forum for appliance collectors and they all agreed to let him have them. Still, I didn't have to haul them away myself or pay a disposal fee, and there is a collector who is happy out there.
