more than likely the lack of replacement parts will make them worth less. when my 12a dies my car will get a 13b.

That's why I went with a 13B in my first gen as well.

However, I have been hoarding 12A parts because I want an old school project/race car, so I'm going to be using carbon apex seals.

Yes, as stated, the race classes that mandate 12As will be where the demand comes from. This will subside when the sanctioning bodies are bombarded with request from competitors for a cheaper alternative. Normally takes a good number of years from parts becoming NLA - but it will happen.
