The big stories out of\u00a0the classic car world today are the multi-million dollar rarities that will be offered for sale at the big auctions in Monterey, Calif., next month. With those cars making headlines, it’s easy to forget that there isn\u2019t a millionaires-only policy when it comes to classic cars. Here are four of our favorite all-American classics that can still be had for less than the price of a loaded new Ford Focus:<\/p>\n

3. 1964-66 Ford Mustang<\/a><\/strong>: The first generation Mustang\u00a0 which celebrates its 50th anniversary this year, has clearly aged beautifully, looking just as fresh today as it did in April of 1964 at its New York World\u2019s Fair introduction. Prices seem to be firming up, but six-cylinder coupes and convertibles are still available at a reasonable price.<\/p>\n
$\"1964\u00bd$

4. 1927-31 Ford Model A<\/strong>: Like movie sequels, few automakers have had the ability to follow up one blockbuster with another of equal magnitude. The Model A was “The Godfather II” to the Model T\u2019s “The Godfather.” If you look at American period photos from the 1930s-40s, it sometimes seems like there was nothing else on the road. They can still provide\u00a0reliable transportation even in the 21st century. Amazingly, this piece of automotive history is still affordable. Tudor sedans range from $15,000 to $20,000 and roadsters $20,000 to $25,000.<\/p>\n
$\"1930$
