I bet that was one happy owner...I have to believe that the "bubble" is on the verge of breaking soon.

You're probably right.

I think the Street-Rods did. They said those weren't bringing big bucks at all.

Maybe due to a flooded market of all the glass cars, and/or that the old guys that think they're worth their weight in gold are dieing off.

Hey, I win!! I'll pick the self cleaning oven and the clothing-optional trip to Tahiti.

$250K? Who built it? For that kind of money I hope it was someone with a pedigree so the car will hold that kind of value. Otherwise I might be disappointed when it shows up at BJ and brings half that next Jan.

The car was at the Atlanta Southeast Chevelle Show (ACES). Nice car that is very well prepared. No doubt in my mind that $100K was spent to build the car given the level of preparation and detail.

Hardly worth $250K in MY opinion. For that kind of money there are other cars that will stand the test of time in value and desirability. From a collectibility standpoint, it's just a car.

Given the above fact, buyers with that kind of "jack" to spend may not be interested in the future and are buying what they "really like" and want. In that case the car was well worth the money to the bidder's since they now have instant gratification and all the peons like us talking about how stupid we think the buyer was in their purchase.

I hope to be stupid someday!!!!!

I see a pattern here. Makes you wonder...

Like I said in the topic on Team Chevelle about that car... No doubt it's a very nice car, but for $250k I would expect to see something exotic done to it. It appears the whole thing was done with bolt-ons, and nothing much if any real fabrication work was done to it.

thats kinda what I was thinking. It looks like a killer car, but 250K.....
I am with Steve, I would take the aluminator and some other killer cars and go vacationing. Like Mark said when two dudes want a car and have deep pockets prices go crazy.
