I'm sure some would. I wouldn't, because I'd daily drive it myself. When its your car you do what you want.
I semi daily-drive the SDL, I'm not being contradictive, I just don't see why it's "ok" to shell out upper range dough for a 33+ year old car then turn around and dump the same amount in every year. If my SDL required $6500 in maintenance one year, it would just sit behind the barn or get sold. I love the car, but I'm not about to sink that kind of money into it in one go.
