Part of me thinks it would be funny if Bill Gates started going to these auctions along with a portable car crusher in the parking lot. See if these greedy folks could stomach getting there asking price just to see it go straight to the crusher.

Kind of funny. I've been on this site since 2003 and watching the auction shows and reading the magazines since long before that. We have all been talking and wondering about when these "crazy car prices" will crash and forecasting the death of the car hobby.
I guess I'll keep waiting for it to happen but I'm starting to wonder.....

See if these greedy folks could stomach getting there asking price just to see it go straight to the crusher. I'm not sure how someone asking for a certain price and someone else agreeing to pay that price is "greedy"? That's how auctions work (and have always worked)--the highest bidder gets the item, and the seller is trying to get the best price he can.

As I tell wifey all the time, our name isn't on the title any more.

I sold my 1963 415 HP M.W stocker, 2 door Belvedere sedan in late 1988 for $11,500.00 which I thought was top dollar. The new owner raced it for one year in the Good Guys Nostalgia SS class and sold it at the end of the year after semi restoring it, it was a original real M.W. SO CA rust free car, for $33,000.00 to a guy back east (Joe Aluise SR) that owned a trucking company that hauled container freight up and down the coast, he had 750 diesel tractors that could haul those containers. His family raced it and added an aluminum front end and bought several high compression legal motors from several of the better east coast Mopar engine builders at that time. They set the record in A/SA several different times and made that old car fly My point being some people with a lot of money will buy what they like ONLY in America

There is a company in Colorado that restores and updates these things. They sell for north of $100k and there is a waiting list. A long waiting list.

In like 05-2008 or so you could score a pretty nice Grand Wagoneer for about $5K around here. I remember looking at one in PA that had less than 100K miles on it, original owner, garage kept, looked mint and it was like $4500. I probably would have been smart to grab one back then lol.

You obviously don't see us as caretakers of these classics. I think that we are.
