Now that's a Classic

 It was a '72 Chevy El Camino. It was severely rusted around every corner, it had rust-pitted rims, its paint job was either snot green or puke yellow which was put on my spray can or by brush and by the looks of the interior, Hurricane Earl hit shore right on the leather bench seat. Every window was covered in a thin film of dust and even the FOR SALE  1000.00$ O.B.O sign seemed to have collected dust from days gone past. My friend looks to me and says.." Now THAT'S a classic car".

Yes, El Caminos are what we as a society refer to as classics. But, what else besides cars from previous generations are notable classics?

Records/45 players/Cassettes?
GameBoys?
SlingShots?
Milk Delivery Guy?
Poggs?

Montreal Expo Buildings?

The El Camino really made me ponder. What objects in my lifetime that are seen as "cutting edge" and "hi-tech" will develop into a "classic". I know our day in age is very heavy on development in all aspects of life, but, what will make what into a classic? 
With all the new buildings in Dubai being erected, will the CN Tower be a classic soon? With all the "avatar" and online experiences being developed, will human contact be a classic? 
Will the Human race soon develop into a "classic" and fall backseat to "something" else?
Maybe I'm just getting ahead of myself with all this talk, but consider how far we have come since our '72 Chevy El Camino. Half-truck-half-car?... come on. Unheard of back then. It happened though. We created it with our own mind and thoughts.
Maybe even thinking on our own and creating our own thoughts will turn into a "classic"?????


We all know Terry and Deaner are classics....
