So it seems that in an investment standpoint your better off to comission a high end builder to build a one off ride and bring it to barrett jackson to unload it to a rich image consious guy than to put your money into rare muscle. You can't tell me that the Zephyr from last year, whatthehaye and the teraplane (which was built by the same guys as last years zehpyr) from this year cost that much to build. They must have made a tidy profit on both, even the stupid Alumitub (how many more stupid names can they come up with) got more money than i thought, look at the reproduction mercedes gullwing reaching nearly original prices??. Even the guy who thought he would maximize on last year Zephyr and brought that covertable one only went for $60k. There was some good prices paid from some nice build projects and i would think most those guys were happy. The 35 ford roadster tucci build went for 70k and i know he wanted $200k late last year becouse i talked to him, so OWWW!, i would think he bought that back. I wonder how many others bought theirs back?. I wasent there but some of those custom rods were very nice (Bruce?), and seemed to be getting top dollor. The commentators were mentioning that cars like chevzoom still got all the money and it's a 15 yr old car and yet they said it will be a future collectable becouse it's a Boydd build and yet the foose Stueddy and the Skyliner did'nt hit the right marks (the realmad seemed about the right price). Yet Foose is in my opinion the superior builder??????. The crowd there seemed to be looking for nice cars not nessasarly "right" cars. I like how in some cases the wife is in the bidders ear. BTW, craig's comment on the 3mill olds was he sold that car to it's current owner back in 97 and he said he would be happy if it brought 600-700k. He must be doing backflips!!!!
