When it comes to the "questionable" cars being sold for big money I think it boils down to a significant number people out there with money to burn that have been getting into muscle cars over the last couple of years. They're not as educated about these cars as they should be and it's leading to foolish decisions like assuming that a car that's been in a magazine or two is what its reported to be at the auction. The auction companies are covered by their disclaimers so they just keep them going across the block as fast as they can sell them without fear if a car or the docs are real or not. Throw a little alcohol in there along with the TV camera's and you've got a perfect storm for a bad decision. I think most of us on this site know better but the poor folks buying those cars don't and they're going to get a expensive wake up call one of these days if they do there homework. But if they didn't do their homework on a car before the auction will they once they get it home? Companies that don't post the VIN aren't doing us any favors either IMO.
