Forty years ago I purchased a new VW Beetle... Its timeless and I still have it.
I never was much of a fan of VW Beetles new or old, but it is cool you kept it all those years so for you that would be timeless. I bought a 58 Plymouth Fury 2dr Golden Commando about 36 years ago and still own it, I guess that's timeless for me at least until I either sell it, I die, or a some sort of natural disaster befalls upon it. Nothing lasts forever, even the great Pyramids are falling apart.
