Barrett Jackson COPO Camaro

[musclecarjohn]

As I've stated before,if Reggie's involved,you can bet your bottom dollar something's fishy because that's just how he rolls...and he has operated that way for years.You don't get a reputation like his for nothing...
Another year,another black eye for Barrett-Jackson and all involved.

The only thing that would make this better, is if it were a re-bodied L89 Nova....then we'd have something to talk about

So why doesn't anyone ever get cold cocked at the BJ shows??? I mean...didn't Boyd or someone in the hotrod world get decked a time or two?? ?

I was there, as usual (10 strait years), and watched the ZL1 live.
They were clear that it was a rebody on all 3 Holub cars.
It was painfully obvious how long they took as well as the other BS...

BJ is fun to see old friends, cool cars, great artwork etc, warm weather (usually), beautiful women and have a cocktail or 6.

It is clear that the "no reserve" has made for a very poor selection of cars and eliminated its "barometer status"

My biggest complaint is that they don;t have bidder's only upscale bathrooms anymore.............

PS Mecum and Russo for good cars and less BS.....BUT IT IS STILL BUYER BEWARE!!!

What's the difference between a rebody and a retag-car?

[SSjeff427]

I realize that I do not have a dog in this hunt.
I also realize that I am a small fry in this big picture.
I also realize that no one here has any reason to take anything I say as meaningful, informed, educated or sane.
BUT, watching this ZL1 deal live, reviewing it on my DVR and watching the youtube replays and talking with numerous friends in my small circle of collectors (Mopar and Ford guys who have no dog in the hunt either), we are all not only disturbed but realize that this can't be the only incident like this. You are not going to convince me there hasn't been shill bidding and buy backs going on to keep up the prices and hype of this "NO RESERVE" circus going.

I would imagine that the average JOE who watched his car hammered in less that 90 seconds and got the experience of losing his ass on live TV, just loved watching Craig Jackson reach out to the auctioneer who after giving "fair warning" last call, I am going to ............ Grab him and say not yet!

You better be in the inner sanctum of that zoo, or you are asking to get exactly what most those folks got in this economy. A lesson in market correction.

Rebody; Putting a different body around a tag or tags.

ReTag; Installing tag or tags on a body they don't belong on.

Any difference?
