Due to the distruction of B&W sets mentioned above, I believe they are holding their own at best. At my house, the number of B&W sets that are working is increasing(although I have setbacks now and then as once they operate awhile something other than a paper or electrolytic cap will fail).
As to the signal change mentioned above, with the cell phone companies wanting to hog all the spectrum they can, the change may be to no advertizer funded over the air TV. Not ethical in my opinion, but politicians continue to be bought. Recently I saw that the cell phone companies are trying to get some of the DOD spectrum-how is that good for national defense?
As to 1970s cars, I have a 1978 Mustang II. As it is only one of four that I know of in the Austin, Texas area, I win prizes regularly at car shows. Ford made over a million of these in five years, most were crushed. However, I do not think it is extremely valuable. I recently saw both a Ford Pinto and American Motors Gremlin at car shows. These are also scarce, but not to valuable! I have not recently seen an American Motors Pacer, otherwise known as a pregnant Pinto, though.
