69 Z28 RS JL8 Crossram car listed at BJ auction

That's what I thought about the Orange car. $79K for a NOM non GM crossram Z28. I can't figure it out.

Without coming off negative I did not say it last night.....the Motion Vette Brought $210,000!!!!! I predicted it would not do over 200K......I guess the market is changing........

[Jeff H]

Yeah, that was a stunner. These guys paying $500K for a street rod but nobody is stepping up for the rare muscle. I'm confused.

In my opinion, very few bidders there know anything about COPOs, Motion cars or other truely rare muscle cars. They want something to look pretty sitting in their garage. I'm not saying the COPOs aren't nice looking cars. Most of them look like a plain jane car until you open the hood. That's not what most of these guys want. They would rather spend $500K on one of Boyd's street rods that will be worth $100K in a few years.

Have to admit that some of those customs are pretty sweet. I did like that "Whatthehea" Boyd car. Some of those woodys were done very nicely. The silver woody gave me a, well you know.

I guess if the Dellahaye/What-the-haye was a truck, it would have been called the "What-the-F--k

That car was absolutely stunning. The only problem is after seeing Boyd's TV show, I know the BS craftmanship that went into building that thing. Brock Yates is talking about how people are paying the big dollars for Boyd's cars because of his exceptional craftmanship when in reality, his cars are built by a bunch of cry baby 20 year olds.

It's probably because the ultra-dollar street rods are truly one-of-a-kind but there's always some other guy out there with a Hemi Cuda or LS6 convert.

Some of those creations were simply mind boggling...someone brought a just completed Boydster (whatever that is) and it went for 90k...bet it cost more to build it...
