A very desirable car is a 67 Nickey converted 427 Camaro. I believe Mike sold one about a year ago at Mecum for around 400K ? Out here in Ca. we had a dealer named John Geer that also was converting 67 Camaro's with 427's. The Nickey is worth several hundred Thousand and the Geer car if to be found is probably worth less that 100K.

Now there is a somewhat qualified answer, but are these asking pries now, then or at different times on each car or simply your opinion?

do you recall the stupid phrase everyone threw around in '09 especially your boss when explaining something to you that sucked......" it is what it is" .....well if a car came from a certain dealer yesterday or today and has paper to back it up,

there generally more desirable to buyers and will usually ad a few bucks to its value......." it is what it is" .....simple as that.

being your a old dealer I cannot fathom why you dont grasp this concept...any dealer or private seller I have been around plays on this when selling, I find it very hard to believe your so naive to claim to not understand this......did you deal in a town of a population of a 100 people???

Darryl, one of the things that amazes me, your website web page is about helping folks determine the value of muscle and vintage cars, but you are unable to grasp the notion that some cars, because of who the selling dealer was, are worth more.

as well.

The Nickey sale price was real and I'm fairly certain it would bring the same amount even today. There hasn't been a Geer car sale that I know of but I'm certain I am the only guy on this site that has heard of them. I'm also certain that everybody across the country would pay more for the Nickey because it is well known. My opinion is based on collecting and owning some very special cars over the years.

When I'm racing my car,the questions I'm asked the most are, "is that a real COPO?",and "is it a real Berger car?" If you do not think the dealership matters, get an old "by Berger" emblem, get another from your Chevy dealer down the street and put them both on E-Bay. See which one gets the most money!

I didn't realize I could find out everything I ever needed to know about buying a collector car for a low one time payment of $25.00.

Suddenly everything seems much clearer now...
