Cobra's and Barrett Jackson

[RestoCreations]

This was my 3rd year attending, second year selling a car, and i thought the quality of cars this year was outstanding. There were still several turds, but most of the cars were exceptionally nice and i can guarantee that most sellers did not even come close to breaking even. I know that i ate 17,000 on the car i sold at the auction this year. My car went really late on Thursday night after the charity cars. Hardly any bidders were left.
I thought the two continuation Shelby cars selling for over a hundred and at the same price was odd as well.
I'm glad i did not have a bidders pass this year or i would have brought home a 65 fuelie corvette and a 61 Corvette. Plenty of deals to be had for nice collector cars. The C1 and C2 Corvette market is in the tank, minus a few outliers that made absolutely no sense at all-ie, a guy paid almost 90 grand for a small block 67.
Anyway, i had a great time even though i lost money. It's a great auction to attend and i am sure i will be back again.

I could not beleive the money that was paid for that lime green charger or challenger with the engine sticking gaudilly out of the hood , $280,000 , I think the car was called FRANKEN.............something

The guy could have bought the car new off any Chrysler lot and had the mods done for way less

The guys bidding there are in a completely different financial category
