All the sparkles you see from the cars on TV can be done with a special piece that goes on over your camera lens. It is like a fine wire screen. They are using all the tricks that they can think of.....like the guy waving the checkered flag all the time. I'm impressed.

So they are doing that on purpose? You've got to be kidding me See the attachment to see how bad it is on a big screen

Anyone into Amphicars. I could not believe what that thing brought last night. I know where there used to be 2 of them sitting. I am going to go see if they are still there. I also thought last night(Wednesday) was not as good as Tuesday night.

Hoo boy, $125K for the red 360HP SS396 Chevelle out of Minnesota. I had a feeling it was going to do well. My buddy at BJ looked at the guy's low mile '69 Z and says that its all that as well. Seller did very well. If rumours are correct, the Chevelle sale about paid for his buy-in, and the Z sale will be pure gravy.......

Hey, $56,000 for the 66 427 Caprice.
Way to go. The Buyer got a Bargain.
That was an absolutely beautiful car.
Congrats to the seller. In my humble opinion, it should have sold for even More !

By the way, having been involved in Auctions like B-J, and have people there for me, no time for me to travel there, see my website at http://www.kuhnsklassics.com
The prices paid there are usually a Bit high.(that's an understatement) It is truely a Blip in the market, and althought the sales there help the value of cars like the 66 Caprice, it is not reality. A Note for all viewers of the auction, When you consign your car to be sold No Reserve there, you can Bid on it and "Buy it Back" if you like. In that instance you pay the Buyers and sellers fees but you keep the car. This is done when the seller sees his car not hitting the value he wants to get for it. That's why you might see a car Sold on the block and then later that day For Sale elsewhere in the lot outside. Anyway, Enjoy the show. It is somewhat fun to watch.
