One other thing is that a lot of older frames a quite a bit cruisier in their handling whereas to get the same thing of a modern frame you'd need to look out for a purpose built tourer or audax build and these tend to be quite expensive as demand isn't as high as your bling cabron sportive/Strava/nodder machine.
