Re: Any thoughts on the B-J auction...?
 

I could'nt believe that fugly polara that Coddington did got more money then the motion car or even the foose car, granted it was for charity but $500 for charity on maybe a $100k car thats pretty generous, consider that the 2006 shelby got $700k for a $45k car too. I also noticed how BJ and Codington like to hold hands and skip through the flowers together. The talk about great builders with codingtons name always on top and foose's name begrudingly mentioned if at all on the bottom of the list. Hmmmmm seems to be something going on here.

Yup both the BM camaro and the six shooter are built by Time machines right in my home town.I seen both very personally.IMHO neither car is worth over 100K.I think there was some hanky panky going on with both bids.I agree with all its not fair how much time they spent on the BM car but others not.Very shady!

Re: Any thoughts on the B-J auction...?
 

If you look at the BM Camaro from 50 feet away you could see there was a helluva lot more than 100k to build...

Re: Any thoughts on the B-J auction...?
 

Wow--I guess then half the auction was shady....
If you go by what you or anybody else thinks cars or property or houses or apartments are supposed to be worth---You'd better get a bigger cryin towel It's what someone is willing to pay and if you want it you put up "MO MONEY"--Simple----As far as time given to certain people or cars---------------Listen, some of these car builders and car designers are icons and I have no problem with letting them sit in the first row --They contributed to the car hobby more than you or I ever will----People are out of touch with the cost of products and services today and the large demand on them...

Lets get 20 guys to go in on this 27.9 actual mile '70 LS6 Chevelle I'm selling and we can bring it to BJ next year!!! LOL... now the $400+k price doesn't seem all that nuts... wait, let me check my wallet...CRAP!

I spoke to a lot of nervous sellers in the staging lanes.A lot of cars weren't bringing the money and there were some good buys late.

That was my gut instinct also, once the results are tabulated, it will be interesting to compare this year's dollar amounts to last year's. My guess is that maybe we're hitting a plateau for a while.

Re: Any thoughts on the B-J auction...?
 

That "no reserve clause" is no fun for the seller...

Again...does ANYONE know why the 6-shooter was sold TWICE???

I mentioned to a friend I thought B-J might have to consider getting away from "no reserve" and his answer was "how can they go backwards".

Good answer...what does everyone else think?
