Why don't car companies do this?

[Fug]

I've had this idea rattling around for awhile. I'm sure I'm not the first, but why don't some of the car companies reintroduce their old classic body styles but with modern engine and electronics? Personally, I don't like all of the electronics in the modern cars, at least not to the extent that it's going because it all breaks and is costly to repair, but I feel like there's a market for that older aesthetic style but with modernized features.

The style of the bodies looked so cool on the old cars. Yea, it's not aerodynamic but still looks great.

Older gen style but with modern stuff like collision detectors, radar sensors, airbags, screens on the dash, power windows.

Spoiler

I think there's also a market for simpler cars with a lot of the old tech that was simpler and less expensive to fix. I guess Honda and Toyota already still do it for the most part but it'd be neat if there was one company that went for durability and also never changed the tools needed for service on their vehicles instead of coming up with something completely new every year

Retro cars are already very popular, always have been.

There are a number of new companies making really simple cheap electric trucks for the western market:
