Im beggining to think that some of you guys think the fights on "Lizard lick towing" are real.

they are staged???? really :-)

Maybe it is just me, but I just never cared to place a huge premium on the "first" or "last" built of anything. It won't make it any more enjoyable to drive or even loon at. How many times you gonna go out in the garage or shop and take a peak at the 00001 vin? It is a novelty, but not much more to me.

As for Holy Grail of "muscle cars"???? Normally the first few off the line back then were very plain jane low performers. So, unless a 327 210 horse 67 Camaro now qualifies as a muscle cars, I think not.

I had a hard time making it through an episode of this show, and am still sad about the wasted 60 minutes of my life...

Seriously though, these cars are pretty neat but that show is an insult to my intelligence, and I am pretty easily entertained. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/dunno.gif[/img]

And this is the Holy Grail of Muscle Cars? I guess that confirms my thoughts about the show and the cast. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/rolleyes.gif[/img]

Re: First 2 firebirds in the news
 

I don't get it! Chuck just bought these two cars on eBay a few months back off the same guy. They were no big deal then. Everybody had a chance and they were sold for around 25k I thought. Now they are the 2 biggest finds? Didn't Chuck have something to do with that 427 vette a while back with the show? Sounds like the show is getting stupid fast. No offense Chuck but I really don't see that big of a deal here. What's next for the show?

Re: First 2 firebirds in the news
 

I remember him having the vette.

It's on TV right now. GMG sold them for 325k and is gonna restore for another 325k and has to complete in 60 days or lose 10k for every day late. This is just stupid.

$650k for two first generation Firebirds? I understand that, being the first two cars built, they hold some significance but, that's one hell of a premium to pay in my opinion.
I saw bits and pieces of the show last night and they kept saying they were doing a concourse restoration on the cars; then I see the subframe for the #1 car with all of the pitting still there.
