There certainly is a growing market for land yachts, and prices are beginning to pickup from the ones in the 70s. Gen X and millennials who have or starting families would certainly love them more than their parents minivan or SUV. Its a totally untapped market right now.
I do hope flip-up headlights make a return.

Or at the very least hide-away headlight lense covers. I remember some vehicles had these covers that would either move up or down when headlights were turned on. Something like this could extend the life of the plastic protecting it from oxidation going from clear to milky white.

That would just add unneccesary costs imo. They need to go back to glass lenses for headlights. Then no moving parts to fix or replace like your moving cover would be. I wish glass was at least an option over the plastic.

Hidden headlights were one of the reason I chose the c5 over buying a c6.
Never have to worry about the lights getting that dull faded look most vehicles have today.
Plus it gives the vette a more finished, refined look.
One day, God willing, I’m buying a fully reconditioned.and artfully detailed classic Checker — with leather seats. Yeah, I was a New York taxi driver in my college days, so they hold a special place in my heart, especially now that I wouldn’t have to drive one ten hours a day to pay the rent! And no, I don’t want a yellow one. I know that Checkers are out there and aren’t exorbitant or especially rare. So maybe one day…
I sometimes think about that myself. I drove a Checker in 1975 for a year here in the Phoenix area.
