What did you click on to open the old B-J site format Mike? I can't find it, and the new format won't let me post the direct links to the cars.

Yeah the new one's slow, this one's much better imo.

Luckily I bookmarked the '04 site and the direct linking still works as shown up top.

Partly because of the market being so soft, partly because it was a very late addition to the sale but mostly because it was the wrong venue IMO.  I'm biased but GM would have done better running it through the RM auction across town this weekend where the clientele will be primarily looking for that kind of vehicle.  But my opinion aside, you're right, someone got a bargain.

This is what kills me about Mr. "Guru" Galen Govier....the sales info on that 70 R/T SE says (according to the Chrysler Registry (Galen's)) "It is also #2 of 3 RT/SE's "Y07" Code.

That sounds super rare doesn't it? Well the 70 Charger Registry already has 9 Y07 R/T SE cars registered.

I will bet that the agreement GM had to make with Barrett was that they got exclusive rights to handle EVERY item GM sold.    RM sure would be a better bet for the older cars.

How many A32 cars with cruise control are there DD.  That has to be it's rarest attribute.

I could never get the guy to send me a copy of the broadcast sheet or tag and the pix I took of blue and this car many years ago are on a floppy disc.  Maybe he didn't want his GG credentials debunked by having it our Registry.  :shruggy:

I have some 'net buddies down there who will be taking pix.  :icon_smile_wink:

Hi all - went to the B-J auction last night - I have pics to upload but haven't been through all of them.  I can certainly confirm that people are getting a HECK of a bargain at the auction this year.  No joke, even the beer was cheaper.  If you'd been sitting on some money holding out for a really nice car - this is the year to buy at the auction (if you discount the ri-flippin-diculous fees that the auctioneers charge of course).  There was a slew of really nice frame off restoration cars that were going for under 30k.  I could be wrong but I'm pretty sure the 67 vette convertible I saw go for 53k would have gone for near twice that when I visited the auction last year.  Guess its just a sign of the times, collectible cars take it in the nose like any investment when times get tough.  Only a few chargers last night, 1 68 and two 70's that I saw.  Pics to come.

sure are a lot of cudas to come across. anyone else think buyers overpaid last 2-3 years and now they want to unload before the bottom falls out completely of 6 figure six pack cars, etc?

That '68 XP that went for $45,100 (but I guess it didn't make the reserve price?)...anything special about it??? I know it had a 440 and upgraded electronics, but really... :scratchchin: Look forward to the photos and your up close impressions!

Jerry sold #743 for $35k to this dealer and it just gaveled out at $58k.  It cut out on line while the car was being sold but the announcer was pimpin' it out as 1 of 1 this-n-that.

I think I threw up a little in my mouth. :eek2:

I thought it looked a little rough under the hood for $58k :scratchchin:

It looks to me like prices are all over the place. I've seen some cars that seem like a bargain and others that remind me of the over pricing of 2 years ago. Of coarse I'm watching it on TV, everything looks good from my seat. I really have no confidence in the condition descriptions from the announcers. Steve Magnante is the only guy who has any true knowlege of cars from the muscle car era, but if you notice he's very careful about what he says (they all are). You know the old saying "if you don't have anything good to say, don't say anything at all".
