"I agree with everything you said, but especially about Chris Jacobs. He's an idiot and not a car guy at all."


Yeah for sure, that guy is just annoying....



But really, I think those shows have skewed the market quite a bit, and now everyone thinks they have something worth a fortune. I know one guy who bought a GTO at a Mecum Auction a few years ago for 11 grand, then reentered it the next day hoping to cash in. It went for 9 grand the second time, so he lost many $$ since he paid both buyers and sellers fees. More money than sense. The market tends to readjust every few years anyhow. I'm like JRN1967, Model A's are a good hobby that are reasonable and fun and I don't think of them as big money makers.
