Did a video on most of the big Mopars at the 2024 Mecum Kissimmee auction. Have some commentary on where the market is going and what went up and down. Also talked about what I think about a market with a $160k A Body. Think of it like a Sportscenter like recap but instead of covering a football game I cover the auction. Click on the link below to my YouTube channel.

Nothing I like better than watching boozed up old white guys with more money than common sense buying nothing but status symbols to impress other boozed up old white guys with more money than common sense.

Whew, rant over.

it's always been babes, booze, money and cars, [in no particular order] at those auctions for more years than i can count, not coming anywhere close to actual values of our average toys.

I have not watched it, but I'll ask....

Does it cover the cars for sale with fake fender tags & other fake documentation?

I would watch a video like that, but to be fair to potential buyers / victims it should air before any auction starts.

Good video.


Pricing is fair when compared to the cost of a new SRT vehicle or what Broncos are bringing.

I would like to have seen over $300,000.00 for the Survivor AAR from BC. The black AAR was a fair price.

Along the same line as the 318 A-Body in your video, the price on this 318 E-Body was $68,000.00:

It's a sad day when Dusters are fetching anything over $20K restored, nevermind $159K!

Not to hijack, but related, Bring a trailer.com is also reflecting a lot of the madness, some of the (a lot of) prices on there make you scratch your head…is it just auction fever???

You really couldn't restore ANY car today for a total of $20K.
Maybe, but maybe, if you did ALL the work.

@alaskan_ta you should watch the video Barry, one of the cars in it is a perfect example of what you are talking about.

Looks like a buddy of mine in the Chicago area bought the AAR survivor. I didn't know he was at the auction, but I will corroborate that with him tomorrow...

Yes he did buy it, he is pretty happy to park it next to his other Mopars including an M-Code Dart he bought last year! up

So with the restoration cost at 250k the seller took a 120k bath plus whatever he paid for the car.
