If I were within 200 miles of the auction, I would be there this weekend if only to watch and enjoy.

I hope it is recorded on video.

He was brilliant to invest his money in cars instead of the rotten financial instruments that have squandered the money of people who saved, thinking they’d get interest on those savings for their old age. How wrong they were!
The crooks that run the Fed and Wall St. have ripped savers off to the tune of trillions of dollars. “A penny saved is a penny lost.”

This demonstrates how big the mark up on new cars really is.

This man was in business for fifty years and just left 500 cars unsold. That’s is an average of ten cars per year.

If you use today’s prices as a guide; average price of a new car around $25K that is $250K in unsold product per year. Granted some of the cars were trade ins but the guy was definitely making a lot of money if he could just let assets sit and rust in a field.

I heard about the particular treasure trove of vintage cars some months ago; and the plans to get it auctioned. I am surprised given that early report that the auction is only now taking place.

FTA: This weekend was specifically picked for the auction because there was no University of Nebraska football game scheduled: an important consideration for drawing a crowd in the Cornhusker State.

LOLOLOL!

The auctioneers will be smoking some fat Cubans and popping a bottle of old stuff at the end of this event.

These are probably all Pre-EPA cars.

That’s when styling, good looks, mystique and power sold cars.

Today, at the point of an EPA gun, cars are all required to look like lemon drops with wheels
