Anyone watching B-J Palm Beach?
 

There appeared to be some fairly reasonable prices early on, but they seem to have come back up this afternoon....

I'm watching these blithering idiot announcers tip-toeing around the facts with the one-of-twelve produced, lime green, 1971 hemi automatic Challenger R/T that had been rebodied. It's hilarious to listen to their non-sensical prattle. It's like they think they are going to get sued if they say the wrong thing.

Gee, it sold for $87,000. Ya think the fact it was rebodied had something to do with that price? https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...s/rolleyes.gif

Looks like the bidders knew what they were looking at. In its felony-free, original body it would have been a $200K car.

The looks on some of those guys faces are priceless.

Looks like a few give-aways and then some ego bidding also. Hard to tell where the smart money is... (maybe it stayed home) https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ins/tongue.gif

The prices paid for certain Corvettes was beyond belief. Obvious restamps and trim tag changes and they still brought big $$, simply amazing.

I think that would be Steve Magnante(sp) and out of the group of commentators that cover the BJ auction I think he's the only one who has even the slightest clue.

I love how the guys on TV keep saying that numbers matching means it has its original motor. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/no.gif

Steve M.really knows his stuff.I'd believe what he says more than some of the other talking heads on the B-J broadcast.
