However, rarity and increasing value, for me, can never make an ugly old clunker into a "Classic" car!
Sow's Ears and Silk Purses, perhaps?

Philosophically I have to agree with you. However, if one were to stubbornly stick with this definition, all magazines dealing with Classic Cars/Thoroughbred Cars or whatever they call them, would pretty soon run out of subjects. They can't simply write a new story about the E-Type every year.... although some of them do it every five years...
