It could be. The Ray Allen Chevelle that went for stupid money about five years ago sold last year for about a quarter of the previous selling price. I think the market has moved out of the stupid money realm and moved to a more realistic number.

ive always wondered if a $700,000.00 car (car A) purchased at auction... (car A) re-sells for a lower $500,000.00 price is that car stigmatized? over a car (car B) that say.. sold for the $700,000.00 figure at the same period as (car A)at auction but has yet to be put on a new auction...in this new climate.. so it hasnt had an official lower bid sale on its record... obviously the market has tappered.. but if it stabalizes... is the (car A)$500,000,00 car stigmatized ? cheapst

The hot ticket were the factory Race cars with some history and documentation. But now it looks like things have changed.Definitely prices are down all over the board.

Grant it, this is BIG money stuff, so everything should be there.But if the documentation is there, there's SUBSTANTIAL proof the car is genuine, I think to be fair to all something as minor as linkage can be accepted. Hey are, after all,30-50 year old racecars that have perhaps gone through a dozen owners or more, have been raced and/or rebuilt God knows how many times, so what would you expect? If I had the money, I'd have happily paid for the car & couldn't have cared less about the linkage...

also it's tunnel ram linkage is not a S&M product built in house but a modern one from Enderle. In reality it makes one wonder just how close the "restoration" comes to the one driven back then.
I was thinking the same thing watching it yesterday, I saw one of there cars at the R&R mopar yard in Missouri (inside of course) about 13 years ago and it looked like it was in original race condition from the day, that is how I would want it.
The Grumpy Camaro was a no sale at $300k and the Grumpy Vega stopped at $200k IIRC. I think I overheard the cuda had to be at least $900k to sale. That is nuts!

The 71 car wasn't much left when it was restored. Heard it was a basket case to begin with. Finding old CORRECT race parts is harder then finding old resto parts. I could have sworn the 71 car had a rack and pinion mounted in the K member when I saw it a few years ago. must have changed it.
