good idea or bad idea?


i have a '69 corvette vert 4-speed (350) that is just sitting around collecting dust. i'm thinking about selling that and my 01 GT and with that money buying a new yamaha R6 and a KB terminator. the thing is, i know the vette is appreciating in value while the other stuff would be going down. and i would most likely regret selling the corvette in 20 years because it will be worth 5 times more than it is now.. i've been thinking about this for some time now and i would like a few opinions on this!

I say keep the vette, stick with the stang you got and mod it, you already have a good platform to start with... if youre not trying to make more than 750+ HP why swap?

Keep the Vette! And I say keep the Stang, because who knows, maybe they will be worth something sometime down the road.
