Lots of armchair quarterbacks out there. It is easy to say this car or that car went too cheap, but IMO, the deciding factor is, if you were at the auction, would you have bid on the car. If not, then it was not a bargain. It is easy to spend some elses $$$.

I really do not think that it because of the market prices are falling
There was some cars that sold for less than some one had in it
Charlie I understand were you are coming from Just look at all the clones
There are more Z –28s out there than Gm Built. Every one thinks there car is a million dollar baby
There also was another problem I can not remember if it was last year or the year before
Now let me see if I can get the facts right”’ Me and my head injury some times gets things mixed up.
There was a red 67 big block 435 hp vette that sold at B/J for 175,000
It was told at the time of sell that it was NCRS certified , Top Flite certified,
The Greg Jackson boys went over it and certified it as numbers matching
And the real deal
A few week later the fellow who purchased the car goes to put the title in his name and to get plates for it .It was then discovered that there was another vette on the road with the same vin . The
fellow who purchased the car was so sure he had the real deal went to the authorities The other vette was traced some were in Texas. When the authorities went to check this car out it was a yellow . the woman who owned it showed the authorities the original order the bill of sell and all the paper work show all work done on the car form day one She was the original owner all the hinting vins matched
So some one went to a lot of work build this red vette but no one ever checked the vin they were using was used I another vette Even B/J did not catch
Form there I never hear any more about this car but I would think it was easy to trace back to see who built this mess
Every one was checking for numbers matching and never checked the vin
To night will tell how things are going There are still a lot of nice cars to be had
And what is the story of the 59 Cadillac murder car

From what Ive seen there has been a couple of deals but nothing is a give away by any means. Prices stayed strong right until the very end last night..I stayed around to see if I could get a good buy on a custom bike the went second to last.. It didnt happen it brought huge money.. cars with eye candy appeal are strong. Pro Touring Camaro brought around 170k or 180k that was strong.. I personally thought the car was nothing to look at but at least 2 other guys thought it was the bomb! LS6 Chevelles?? Most were automatic's and I think all but 1 was numbers matching.. so 80k to 90k seemd like good money to me considering the car, Im sure a 4 speed car with papers with do 125k to 150k just watch tonight. I do think the buyers are alittle more informed this year not so many crazy people with money to burn or drinking to much...but that could all change today!!
