ugh, typical round headlight elitism. I have actually started to hate old cars and that whole scene because of this attitude that anything after 74 isn't worth appreciating. This is the kind of thing that is killing the hobby. Can't tell you how many times "old car" guys (that seem to run any type of organized of car show or cruise in) look down their nose at my 80s cars. Nevermind that my cars can blow the doors off theirs. In CA this translated into a very real blow to the car hobby when the round headlight crowd was pacified by giving their cars smog exemption (74 and prior) as a tradeoff for eliminating the plans for a rolling exemption. That was just fine and dandy to them, who cares about anything after 74 anyway right?
As far as I am concerned, old cars and old car culture sucks.
