Look, I am certainly not going to begrudge anyone for making a buck. This is America, after all and I'm all for it.

What I am NOT for is guys who grab these cars and push the prices to artificially high amounts and push the regular guy out of the market. Now before anyone says anything about regular guys and original Cobras, let's take a look at what has happened to the prices of Mustangs, Corvettes, 'Cudas, and just about any muscle car out there over the past few years. They went from affordable to sky high. Now let's compare that to what happened to 50's classics after the market crashed in 1987. Anybody remember how those prices were out of sight? What are they worth now? The same thing happened with Model A Fords before that. That's what I'm talking about when I say guys like that kill the hobby.

You can bet your bottom dollar that his bread and butter is not selling million dollar cars but lower priced classic cars, which he sells for more than they are truly worth. Just look at his lot.

Ok, I will get off of my soap box now.
