Let's all hope you are correct

Kung Flu rate of mortailty .5%

Ebola virus was 70%

The fact the Kung Flu is spreading worldwide tells you it's mild, where as Ebola never left the continent because it generally killed most folks who got it, regardless of age.

China is already through the peak of it, and getting back to producing I Phones.

As the weather gets warmer in the Northern Hemisphere, it's going to fade away.

Respective to muscle car valuations, i'd be more concerned with millenials not being in to cars in general than a virus.

Speaking of China and Kung Flu, anyone else just slightly curious to know why quite a few of the high ranking officials in Iran were the first to contract it outside of mainland China?

Exactly... Shows that there was a significant connection between the two with several overlaps. Very interesting indeed and not many people talking about that as well.

I wonder how many will attend car shows and swap meets this spring or if they will get cancelled. If everyone stays home in the garage, next season will be sure to bring out some nice finished projects or some really clean detailed hotrods! If this thing continues and I don't get jammed up because of media reactions or actual real deal problems, I should get caught on up everything I ever wanted to do around the house and in the garage. I do hope everyone stays healthy and we can look back later and Thank the Lord for seeing us through financially and health wise.

H1N1 Pandemic in 2009,spread fast,killed people[ approx 545,000] and was soon gone. No hysteria,stock market collapse,and no media hype every day. I think its obvious as to why

Why?

Ok back to the musclecar market. Like everything thing else at this time, this market WILL take a hit and be down some. Will there be a 20% hit like some of the markets, don't know. I can see the average run-of-the-mill cars and not the cream of the crop stuff being down. Driver quality and others down as well.

AND HERE LIES THE PROBLEM. Parts are NOT going down! Body work prices are NOT going down! But with markets being down for the foreseeable future, the market will likely be hit. Now some may dump of their cars, but when a average 7/10 say late '70's F body (like 78-81 Trans am and Z28's) is going in the 20 range, makes it hard for a guy who has one that needs paint and some parts to get some decent $$$ for it.

I just finished a meeting with my financial guy, and what my stuff is down, NOT GOOD.

I don't worry about it, I'm not selling anything.

Ha, I was just going to post when I saw this.

They were just saying on the news this morning the regular flu has killed more people this year (as it does every year) than the Corona virus, yet we never hear about the regular flu in the news.

Kind of interesting how all this has blown out of proportion.
