Damn, same here...I wanted to see what the yellow Z went for too.
Did you like how he changed his blazer color with the color of each car he sold

[Chris396]

That guy is funny. What a stereotype.

The yellow car went for high 80's...i think. I was standing right there. Actually, I'm too tired to think!

Ae you talking about the frost green 69 COPO?? 57k??? I could have parked that car in my front lawn with a for sale sign and did better than that... what happened???

[DarrenX33]

No Joe I think he's taking a shot at me.

[budnate]

hey ya know I love that color..I thought you would have responded with a little more spunk....hands down my favorite color of GM...sealed the deal for me when I figured out the 68 I bought is a green one.....the BJ car looked perfect...does anyone know if it was the real deal and correct...it had that bling when you looked at it....

[DarrenX33]

Please I'm beat. Just came in from the garage. I'll be glad when all the old orange paint is off this block. The store is running out of wire wheels.

Someone called me while looking at that car Thursday. Said it was nice but lots of repoped items under the hood. That's all I know on that one.

All of Resslers cars looked nice...there were just weird ass things wrong with them. The '68 Z (light blue)didn't have deep groove pulleys, the engine wasn't the original...

It didn't stack up to the other 68 Z that was outside in the main arena area..which was a 987 point car

Guys I personally did not see ANY car that brought what I thought was big money. The Lamar COPO at $185K and the Hemi Cuda at $250K are prices that people like RichP here have said they were going for in the first place. To be honest.......I am quite shocked at SEVERAL of the cars being sold so cheap. Could you imagine some of the car owners pissing down their legs as the car that they brought thinking they were going to get $100K for is stuck in the $50's?

Either the bubble is truly bursting or most of these rare cars don't need to be sold at an auction. Outlets like the Internet link people together so most sales are probably worked out privately or through brokers. Another possibility might be that the prices that the brokers are publicly quoting in the first place are A LOT higher than what the cars actually sell for.

Another thing. Speed Channel is WAYYYY behind the times with the people that they have commenting on the cars, especially that British goof. They even said it themselves that Barrett-Jackson used to be the place to go and buy a nice rare European car but now it has shifted to mostly American Muscle Cars and Hot Rods. With that said they could not possibility have worse commentators than those guys.
