FAQ

Although it would be ideal to know NOW what cars will be true collectables in the future, there is no way of knowing for sure. At FCCS, a future collector car is defined as an enthusiast car, typically with a dedicated following or fan base. They are the cars that we as enthusiasts started out with, have worked on growing up or the cars we always wanted and now have the means to buy and fix up. Future collector cars sometimes, though not always, have lower production numbers than your average consumer car, which gives them an edge of collectability.

All enthusiasts’ cars can participate. The FCCS Team will be looking for quality vehicles, highly modified enthusiast builds, rare or low-production number cars and unique or uncommon vehicles from 1980 to present.
