The trend seems to be towards the Pro-touring cars,that Camaro and Chevelle 'vert with the wagon wheels both brought huge dollars.'71 Z/28 Sport Coupe (matching #'s/POP/48K miles) brought a strong $60K so there is hope for the early 2nd gen cars.Typical auction prices,some good buys,most not.Early cars were geared towards the entry-level buyer,momentum started slowly.Cars sell for what they do because the buyers have inspected them,they are there,we are not...for the most part. Dollars are starting to pick up,tonight should be interesting...

I want to see the Bob Johnson Cuda break the bank...

I think I can safely say that I have purchased more cars than anyone at this years Barrett-Jackson auction.

Did you see Craig Jackson's reaction at the $40,000 sale of the Von Dutch bus? He and his auctioneers were all expecting another bus bidding war like last year but I think this one really opened his eyes. He saw that six figure commission just fizzle away...

Out of curiosity, Who determines what the bidding will start at.

That low mile Hemi Cuda's owner must have dropped dead. I'm sure he's been offered double or triple over what it sold for over the years.
