If you happen to have $50k or more just laying around gathering dust, here's your chance to put it to use. I don't happen to have a barn big enough to house all of them I want to buy so guess I'll pass. http://www.rkmotorscharlotte.com/sales/inventory/active#%21/ |

I sold a 67 Corvette roadster like the one shown for 2000 bux. I had owned it for 5 years, and only gave 2500 for it, thought that wasn't so bad at the time, been crying in my beer ever since. But back then, who knew???

WOW, wish I had a 1970 Ford Torino or 1971 Plymouth Cuda. Although unique am sure, 500K+ and 2 million is super crazy.
I missed all the good years except say 1968 on up the older high school kids while I was in middle school use to have some hot rod 1968 Chevy Camaro's pretty cool looking doing burnouts after school all the time.
My Dad years ago told me he use to street race his 1957 Chevy Bel Air, wish he would have kept it he said and so did I, but like said, who knew way back then???
Earliest car I drove was my Dad's 1968 Chevy something or another (similar to a 2-door Chevelle) but was a 4-door, not sure it was a Chevelle though since looked like the one in the link being a 2-door, but was a 4-door version. All I remember about it was my older brother came home drunk one night going to college and rolled it catching on fire somewhat before I had a chance to drive it in high school, plus it burned more oil than gas just about 1 qt. or so every few weeks.
Ever noticed all these cars are 2-doors, they seem to draw more valuable collector cars than most all 4-doors and nowadays we rarely see ANY at all 2-door cars on the road today or even being made.

49k for a VW Bug ?
Hey, the 56 bug is only $24.9k, so does that put you back in the game?  |

Hey John! (Still use Inspector Gadget?) It’s been a long time my friend! No Florida for us this year! My bride has had to have a series of eye surgeries (six and we pray it’s the end of them!) So, we had to stick around this winter. Love your post about these dream machines though! It makes winter a little more tolerable, yes? I love almost ALL the cars on your link! I have to say though, and this is JUST my opinion, so don’t please anyone be offended, I can’t STAND seeing GM motors in Fords! Seems…. kind of ‘sacrilegious’ to me! HAHAHAHA! I get it! Chevy mouse motors are easy to work on, easy to find, relatively inexpensive, parts are everywhere, but still, if you have a 32 put a 302 in it for Pete’s sake! LOL! I’d take the 56 Pontiac Chieftain (still an Arrow lover!) Or, maybe one of the tri-fives! The 47 Ford Flathead would be cool too! Or, the 1970 LS6 Chevelle! Heck, if we’re dreaming anyway, I’d take about 6 of them! Need a new garage though! Let me know how you’re doing brother! Jerry
