Couldn't agree more. Heck, I even fall into that a bit. The first car I owned that I paid more than $1,000 for was a 1977 Honda Civic Wagon purchased in 1980. I absolutely loved that car. It was exactly like the one below except it had a u shaped bar on the front bumper and had larger/wider tires on the back (even though it was FWD, the original owner didn't really understand that).
If I stumbled across a solid original or a good restored one today I'd buy it. Of course, they have all pretty much rusted away to nothing by now. it was a great, fun car with lots of good memories.
Don't get me wrong, I wouldn't go seeking out one, and would not pay stupid "Barrett Jackson" type money for it. But as a little runaround it would be fun to own.
