You know, we Americans are odd. When things come out we gotta have it, we get tired of it quickly, we throw it away and then 20 years later we scream, “Oh, oh, I need one of those,” and then we pay ten times the price (laughs).

It’s very funny because nobody can really predict. When I was a kid they said the Mustang would never be a collectible car because they made a million of them of the first year and a half. So there are so many of them nobody will collect them. Well that’s precisely the reason they did because everybody has a memory of them.

I’ve never sold a car. Once a year we will donate a car to Wounded Warriors, firefighters, Make a Wish Foundation or something like that… But I really don’t feel the need to sell any.

A meat-eating dinosaur that was one of the last to walk Earth replaced its teeth as often as modern sharks do, scientists have discovered. Majungasaurus, which lived between 66 and 70 million years ago, was found to grow new teeth about once every two months. That is up to 13 times faster than some other carnivorous dinosaurs, such as Tyrannosaurus Rex, which took about two years to grow new teeth.

The only way I see one of these standing up to it's rating is if you accidentally dropped yours over the side of your boat in 4000 feet of water. And if you did, how are you going to retrieve it? BTW - the one shown costs $18,000.

A Utah businessman paid $1.32 million for a dime last week at a Chicago coin auction.

It wasn't just any 10-cent piece; the 1894-S Barber Dime is one of only 24 that were ever made, according to Stack's Bowers Galleries, which held the auction Thursday night.

Only nine of the coins are confirmed to still exist.

Many (myself included) shake their head when a discussion of the 1974 GTO arises. But you have to give Pontiac credit. It sold better (7,058) than the 1973 (4,806) and the 1972 (5,807) models.

Unlike the 1974 Trans Am, the shaker hood scoop was functional. This was due to drive-by noise requirements.

Corvette has long been a performance bargain, with the C5 really starting the trend of delivering excellent handling and world-beating performance for the price of a decked-out pickup truck. But a mid-engine car sporting nearly 500 horsepower and a price tag under $60,000 seemed just too good to be true.

It is, according to Motor Trend, which cited a source within General Motors. Chevrolet is poised to lose money on each budget-priced C8 because the eighth-generation Corvette development was based on the Stingray having an MSRP of $79,995.

If you have Netflix you are in for a real treat. Shelby American is a two hour biography on the life of Carroll Shelby. Some really great racing footage. I highly recommend it!
