Saw that last night that thing was badass! Demon on the block sometime today should be interesting to see what that fetches.

What time does it come back on today?

Those were fun cars to test drive back in the day. One of my buddies and I scared the shit out of more than one salesman in one of those GT's :lol:

At 225hp they don't sound impressive. But never ever think it wont try and kill you at any moment. It stepped out on me crossing the bridge this summer. Scary shit.

That was pretty powerful back then. My '87 Monte Carlo SS only had 180 hp when it was stock.

I let my father drive it once. I needed his truck. He fucking near ruined it in the middle of town! It spun a 180 on main street, full traffic, on a Friday night. 

He said "I let he traffic get ahead. Then I stepped on it".  He was white as fuck when he got home!

No body before or since has driven the car! It's my baby and I know how quick they'll head for the ditch!!

I'm shocked at the prices of some of the 60's & 70's Detroit steel.

 

Its the prices that the customs are fetching that I can't believe. There was a time when people turned up their nose at a custom because it was someone else's expression. These people are paying upwards of $300,000 for one.

The trucks are selling strong too.

Last yr a purple hemi ragtop cuda sold for over a mil, 1 of only 8 built.

 

 

this is the one I was thinking of .

This example easily sailed past the $1.32 million achieved by a Plum Crazy 1971 Hemi 'Cuda convertible at Barrett-Jackson in 2013.
