About a month ago there were 5 different estate auctions going on at the same time within 130 miles of me selling Chrysler cars and parts. Chrysler auctions are still going on.
but with differences.

This is a sample. Remember to search each auction's complete listing.

I'll add to this list later. It's 3:17 am..

Last month a local auction that sold finished/survivor cars way below market.. I hate telling you guys this because I loose my "edge" but it doesn't make sense giving these away either. And of course there were many more but this is a sample.

Many people dont take the time to plan the division of their estate, and more often than not it ends up in a where does the assets go battle that an auction is the only way to settle it...or the only way to settle a lifes worth of debt is an auction. The debt collectors goto all around auction co with the best price is hired to clean estate....and it all goes for pennies on the dollar. Many of those ''go to'' all around auction co's have little or no advertising, dont specialize in specific categories, have crazy registration fees, restrictions, buyers premiums, terms or title issues (lost or non existent) that scare most potential bidders away.

Lifetimes of valuable collections get sold for almost nothing when the collector doesnt plan appropriately.

Oh Jeez - don't tell McCandless !!

think a couple of those cars already ran thru a auction

Your right and considering all the money and effort most of us spend it's a sad thing it comes to this. Someone needs to come up with a service-website that goes around all the money grubbers and helps collectors get their life in order so it doesn't come down to this. Maybe some kind of registry?

Some definite scores there 😲😲😲😲

Looks like a good bit of recent stuff. Dudes probably not been in the ground long. Sad....

I have a friend whole scored over 200 carbs, some new in box, some very rare mopar carbs as well for $300 from a estate sale last month.

I'm a bit of a hoarder and my health isn't too good so in a few years you vultures will be picking over my stash. Your going to love the Hemis. I was going to give my son a car or engine but when I can't even get him to help put my Hemi car back together why should I reward him.

The '51 Plymouth listed above ends today(Sunday). It would be a great 50s hot rod.. MOONEYES, homemade intake manifold and headers and maybe a custom grind cam?

I'm just floored by how cheap the parts went for in the Shelby auction. Around here, auction prices are just stupid high, even with the buyers premium and payment fee, and total junk gets top dollar.

Sorry about your health. In the end though you have decided to hold onto what you have and the vultures you speak of are just the end of the line from the guy who held onto things knowing the end result to the family who let it all go to the guy with cash in his hand.

Your still alive, not too late to sell and use the money as you see fit for possibly better things. Myself and a few friends have all been sorting and junking and letting go of things we have not used in 30 years or more just for this reason of not seeing things go for nothing AND to save others the grief of having to decide what to do with it all. It a win-win situation for all in doing this.

I started getting rid of cars and parts about 15 years ago up until a few years back but then I sorta got hooked into the hobby again. All my old friends are gone and it was just me until I met a local guy and started helping him. Now I have '68 Barracuda I can't finish and not motivated enough to put the engine in my other car.
Then there are my other hobbies.. NAZI German collectables, Winchester guns, Chrysler dealership junk and others.

The whole thing makes me tired.

Winchesters...I have a Model 42 and a few Model 12s...Good choice!

Always wanted to get a Model 42. Have WAY too many model 94's though including a brand new Model 9410

A model 42 is kind of cute! It looks like a baby model 12!

Hopefully this eye candy doesn't get tossed.. The '73 I had no choice but to replace the wood whereas the '94 only needed cleaned and it's been rated mint by a well known Winchester expert and author.

I've got a beautiful Triplett and Scott that appears to have never been fired. I got it with a broken trigger spring and chipped stock. Replaced both and it looks pretty much as it did in 1864. Perfect rifling.
