Quick word of warning. There's a black '61 Impala going through today, LOT# 1231. The car started life as a 283, Powerglide, not an SS.

Exactly, Far to many fake cars/paperwork going thru this comical BJ auction. It may be fun to watch but with VW buses bringing $55k plus this show is and remains to be a joke.

Spent a good amount of time around the car. It was a 572 powered 5 speed Tremek car. Converted to the modern front end from 98-02. It went for $140k (ish) and sounded brute nasty.

Am I to assume this is the black Camaro that Moss built, and raced the Colletti Mustang? If so, that is a pretty cool car...maybe not $140k cool, but still cool!

I think there is a slightly different make up of buyers. Many are getting away from the number's matching game and are buying cars they want. Period, for what ever reason. They're not idiots or inept they just have the dough to buy what they want. Car's that look cool and haul ass and they're willing to pay a decent price for "what they want".

For example:

115K Custom 70 Challenger
110K Hemi-Cuda Clone
165K SS Motorsports 69 Camaro
115k Blown 70 Road Runner

Those are all strong prices if you ask me. I think it's good thing
