Hello MarsRed; Being that EVERY "1" of George's car's are Ultra Rare/Rare, George's attitude about the GT40 being viewed as a short sale due to his death would also apply to EVERYONE of George's other Ultra Rare/Rare Sports Cars & that SURLY is NOT the case.quote:Originally posted by MarsRed:

Those were George's words about value while alive v. later, not mine.
They may be more reflective of his financial status and attitudes than value in general. I can't say.
Delgato,quote:Most of you bought a car a while ago when prices where far lower. Could you afford the current buy in prices today?
I know most all of you cats would never sell your car. If you did, would you sell to the highest bidder or take less to sell it to a real enthusiast?
Probably. But my situation has changed. I'm no longer able to work (physically) and don't get any disability, so much less income to speak of. It would be more difficult, but not impossible. Certainly my priorities have changed.
Unless the high bid was substantially higher than an enthusiast was able to pay, I'd be okay with selling it for a bit less if it went to someone who'd do right by it. I've done it before.
IF I might respectfully inquire...How did you meet George?...Did you rub fenders whilst George was in his GT40 & you were racing your Lola T70 Coupe??!
