Reply to "BJ Auction Pantera"

Will the buble pop? Evryone says so but the last couple years shows from BJ to dream car garage have imortalized these cars. It has made it "OK" for people of large amounts of money to collect them like art. The price of gas has nothing to do with the value of a car that won't be driven. Cars like the "Hemi" cars coming out now will never be the "real deal" where as these cars of 60's will. Will it pop?

All cars form about 1900-1975 will always have a special desireablility. The world went through an industrial revolution it will never do again. cars of all breads pre 70's are comanding large amounts of money. I think poeple are realizing we will never go back to an era where cars were what they were. By comparison today, most cars are over complicated tools and will have little or no collector value. Certainly not compared to those. Check out this car on e-bay:

Who would have thought it would take $50K to buy a wooden buggy?
