I'm sorry but the guys doing the commentary on the 68 Impala SS427 convertible are clowns. . They are saying there were 68 Caprice SS convertibles with 4 speeds. Very rare. Ya show me one. Morons. These guys should learn a few things before talking about these cars on national TV.

Watching BJ and thinking its the true test of muscle car values, is like watching "The girls next door" and thinking Hefner is living the average bachelors life.

Values mean nothing to me. It's just a week long car show.

My heart goes out to a lot of owners who put their heart and sole into their projects and did not even get close to their restoration costs back let alone the purchase price of the car they started with. Be interesting to see if the reserve comes back.

There is no drought that Crag Jackson will be forced to bring back the reserve

I would not want to be crag Jackson Last night
He must of gotten ear full
Yes you could see that a lot of cars did not make what the seller had in it Just look at the 68 Hemi Charger and the Theme bike of OCC If I remember right both sold for around 185.000 I would bet they had that just in the bike
I know it did not help when Paul senor said Dhoo dhoo it had spark plugs in the head doho aha it is really fast ah-ah rock in roll should have kept his mouth shut

Norm,

If you are unfortunate enough to watch one of their shows,
that is about the extent of his vocabulary. Oh yeah,
F-this & F-that too. Forgot about those gems.

No I have watched the show His oldest son Paul jr has a real good talent
The father all he does is sleep in his office and comes out every now and them screaming and yelling F this and F that He really slows his son down with his kiddy act
I feel it was not his son being so good the father would still be welding fences
And not have the money they have I all ways thought the father was a lazy moron

Andrew,

Two years ago, I sent a rather lengthy e-mail to Craig Jackson
via. the B-J website. I strongly suggested that
they hire mfgr. specific knowledgeable commentators so each
car could be better reviewed to the TV audience. Caprice SS!

No offense to the current on-air staff, but most of these
guys ask more questions than they answer. Maybe we are
just too critical because we know some of these cars better.
I'd like to see a Chevy expert, a Ford expert, Mopar expert,
etc. if that could possibly be arranged.

Steve
