Very few cars at Barrett-Jackson sell at "reasonable market value."

Was that the B/J auction that had that "Great" Live cable hook up last year?..Don't forget that knowledgeable commentary too. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif[/img]

I remember hearing the crowd actually Booed Reggie J. last January,because he wanted more then market value of his car.Possibly because of his name?

I was next to Mr. Jackson on the ZL-1 No sale. This was the original engine documented car. (Reggie's term is "all the toilet paper") The original block was not in the car at the time of sale,however he told bidders that he had located it and had it. Mark Hassett and I spoke to him about the car at the Gala and he had asked me where I estimated the bidding would go on the car? I replied about 300. As I recall the bidding ended up around 290?? Anyway, He was looking for a little over 300. Not really bad if you figure that you are getting a documented "Reggie car" with a spare ZL-1 block.

He will thin the collection from year year but it is clear he does not need the money....

Me either. From what I understand, his cars are often rough around the edges.

Celebrity ownership of cars shouldn't logically help the value too much if it's a top end car. Do Jay Leno, Tim Allen, Charlie Sheen and Nicolas Cage get premiums for their cars?

He plays golf at our course periodically. Now that I have met him and talked to him, I personally value his cars LESS.

Did Reggie really say "all the toilet paper"? or did he say "Tissue" paper? The old school guys call original docs tissue paper because some of it is that funny looking paper that you get from carbon paper copies.
