Mecum Kissimmee 2022
 

Wow, the cars seem to be bringing BIG $ No?
Boss 302 Mustangs going for $200k plus for example?

Wow

Crazy right?!

Dang that K5 brought back some memories. Parents had a 76 same color only with white side insert.

there were some amazing low mile 70s-80s trucks there.
They sold for more then twice what the low mile 70s-80s Corvettes sold for

Yeah, more than one brought over that magic $200K mark. Wasn't expecting all of that.

Stanger I DID see quite a few nice classics that didn't go as high as I though. Early Mustangs and some baby Birds are a few.

Lot F 198 1965 Poppy Red Hi PO K Code Fastback brought $110,000 ! In 1987 i put that car together from a painted car with half of the interior in it. The engine was on a wooden crate . The Cobra oil pan , valve covers and tri power really made it stand out. I showed my wife the Mecum ad and she responded, That was the car you worked on in the garage and put Scott Jr. in his high chair in the garage when you worked on it at night. He was 2 then!

I said this to some buddies today eating lunch. To me, it actually makes sense for the Ford cars to bring more than the Chevy competitors (Boss vs Z) bc at least with the Ford you have some assurance that the car you’re buying is actually a REAL car due to the Marti Reports. It’s actually pretty sad that all these fake cars are being bought as real.

The LS6 cars didn’t do so great at Mecum and I probably know why. It’s because there were about 50 of them it seemed and my guess is by far most of them were fake and brought the value down of the real ones.

You don’t see a bunch of fake Boss 302 and 429 cars and Shelbys.

Please remember a ford can be authenticated by the vin plate, If its real,
a Marti report just gives a bunch of info but nothing you cant figure out online
in a few mins. all that 1 of whatever is just BS.
