definition of antique vs vintage?

What are the years that seperate these two classes of snowmobiles? Will the years change....like will a 1978 snowmobile ever become an antique or will it always be determined by an unchanging year cutoff?

vintage is anything 20 years old.
now an antique is alot older than that.
there must be some antique colectors on here to confirm the qualifications to be considered antique?
