Barret Jackson in trouble?

[QUASAR]

Link to the original article? I can't find it on that site.

maybe prices will come down and I can get a 67 fastback :icon_eek:

It was a posting from January 27th, but yeah, I don't see it. If you google barrett Jackson 4wheeldrift it shows the first part of the article as the first hit, but when you go to the site it isn't there. Interesting.

It's true they have driven the market to the sky for Muscle Cars. It's time to cash my Dad's Shelby. This can't go on forever.

I thought about waiting until after that old bastard dies, but it might have a negative effect on the value.

I'm tellin you, this is the peak now. Maybe not in terms of nominal prices, but people are starting to freak out thinking he'll die soon. You could feel it in the air out there, and it was reflected in the prices those cars were commanding while the Hemi's were slipping. He was in pretty good shape for a guy his age, but the dude is in his mid 80's.

If I were you, I'd clean it up, make sure you get his sig if you don't have it already, and sell that bitch.

He was talking about Shelby.

He knew that but was illustrating a point. I guess his edit that makes that clear came after your post though. I actually thought that he was talking about his dad dieing when I first read it too.

 

[The Man]

the edit was for the "white boy" comment.... i know he "meant" Shelby, but he wrote it all wrong.

Was it the Mopar from a year ago or so?

The lawsuit is for a car from Michigan the seller has a buyer who was willing to go to twice what the car hammered for but his last bid wasnt taken.

 

[CableGuy]

Wow.... cool read! Sounds like every other big business. Too bad they got caught.

The car went across this year

Sounds like every other big business.

That's my feeling exactly. It's a shame everything in life has to be a scam, but that's just how it is.

If you approach things with an assumption that someone is trying to take your money you'll never be disappointed.

 

[Bishop]

No surprise, things like that are common at most auctions.

 

[NVR2FST]

Was it a Mopar...the reason I ask is because some guys I had worked with this past year restored one, took it out there, and the stopped bidding before it was done. The had supposedly had an agreement/ reserve but that all went out the window...
