Take a pile of crashes! The other cars on the list are ones that get bought, parked, maintained, and rarely if ever see the road. That is how they hold/gain value. If you want to try to make money on an 86 you will need too leave it bone stock, never, ever drive it and take meticulous care of it while it sits in a building someplace. One that has every seen the street or has any sort of mileage on it will not go up in value. By the time you pay the upkeep and storage for 30 years you are going to need to sell it for huge $$s just to break even.
