Just sold a James Garner-owned Rockford Firebird for 105 grand. Pretty cool.

Damn.

I'm always shocked at the quality of vehicle and fairly reasonable price on some of those. I'll watch for 40 minutes and mentally buy 5 cars.

The prices some of these cars are bringing is out of control.

I thought the same thing. I’m not into the customs. The bidders are tonight, however.
I’m more a fan of original cars. I like the feel of an old car as it was made. I’m fine that it doesn’t handle like a modern car. That’s the charm of a classic. My first car was a 66 four door Falcon. It was lime green with a straight six engine. It was a good thing most of Kankakee county was flat. It was a dog. It took about 20 min to warm up on a cold day.

They manage to pull crazy money for some tractors from the 60's and 70's as well.

Custom Corvettes are killing it tonight. The money is crazy.

Tonight must be an aberration, because normally the prices seem low.
