Inspiration from old and new, is it similiar?

When I look at the picture above I find inspiration and interest and it may even be "art" that I find. The question is when someone looked at the car below did they feel the same. The car below may be beyond restoration and may not have looked that good the year it was made, but then it might have. Did someone look at it and feel the same as I did when I say the picture above. 

Just thoughts to ponder and inspiring autos.
