There is plenty of junk being scrapped every day but what car cannot be made to at least run today?
Every year in Monterey, we make 6 pre war French GP cars go 100mph for a weekend.
It's fun to read the "wait until the parts are gone" comments but those days are behind us.

Hmm But th F-35 flies In victory you deserve Champagne In defeat you need it!
Scars are Tattoos with better stories !
If you follow all the rules You miss all the fun!
If you have no enemies, you have no character !

I think the issue is not so much sidelined because of parts availability, but because the owners don't have the resources to maintain them properly. No longer economically feasible...
Don't forget, the scrap rate for cars in the USA is about 9 Mio cars a year.
The stuff from before the war wasn't scrapped recently, but rather in the 40's when no one wanted the stuff.
If it's put together with screws and bolts, it can be rebuilt.
The F35 has 8 million lines of code. The Chevy Volt has 10 million...
