Hmm, 'Classic', such an emotive term, isn't it.
My old, sunny Sunday morning car, doesn't have a starting handle, dangling under the radiator, but I still consider it, a classic.
Lug holes, to me, are about as 'aesthetic' as propellers on large air liners.
As 'lovely' as they are to some, they've mostly been superseded.
Anyway, 'Classicity' is just a matter of time, isn't it?
Ps.Beautiful shot of the Submariner!
It's a classic!
