that's why I no longer read any car magazines, (with 1 exception); All those magazines are depressing! 10 Best This, 10 Best That, la di da, (I wonder whose definition of Best?), see, the magazines are out to convince readers to buy NEW cars, so they put down car restoration as a matter of editorial policy, but you and I know better and we go on restoring, and car magazines keep going out of business!

There is only one good reason to restore a vintage car.
It's not to make money.
It's not to save money.
It's not even because you love the car.
It's because you love learning, and doing and the car. If that's the case all those problems are just challenges...and stories.

I took the article to say that if you are doing a restoration for monetary profit, it probably is not a good plan...it did not say not to do it for the fun of it.
(At least that is how I read it)
