Default What's hot, and what's not...????

For what it's worth, I noticed the brother's collection added some small block ebodies converts to their collection this year, namely 340 cars (atleast 2 under a 12 month period). Maybe they (muscle car of the week, Brother's collection) are a good indicator of what cars on the outside fringe of the obvious ones being collected like COPOs and hemis, W30s, etc, to watch out for.

I also, periodically check on cars-on-line, to see what is getting sold. I think that is also a pretty good gauge of the collector car market with a quick scan. I recently checked on my 67 gtx market, and noticed a lot of them getting sold there. A yr ago, it was not the case, plenty of them just sitting there. Just a thing to keep track of.

It's always the old adage: Follow the money.

Black69. I can't think of what smallblock E bodies were added. You know they were recently added or were they just featured on Musclecar of the Week ?

I wouldn't consider a '71 340 'Cuda convertible a fringe collector car. It's smack dab in the middle of the meat. Some of those with the right equipment (billboards, shaker, 4-speed, matching #s, docs) change hands for north of 200K.

I see Stephano sold a 71 hemi cuda listed on there, and a heavy heavy weight (tom lambeck) has a 340 4spd cuda convert over there (actually pretty high price). Looks like a fair mix of dealers and private owners.

Remember when you couldn't wait to get that new issue of Hemmings? I looked through a couple of issues in the past year and almost nothing but dealers in the cars for sale sections. I know things have changed but dang. Ebay isn't much better with a dealer listing the same car 5 times, all being active listings.
