VettenGoat

It’s a shame, but this activity is indicative of the market, or what I liken to the Barrett-Jackson syndrome. The ridiculous prices for cars now a days fuels disreputable suppliers and dealers. The Vette set went through it years back when Corvette guru Dr. Dobbins got into a legal pissing contest with GM and was arrested for counterfeiting parts. With the price of hemis today it’s not surprising these clowns are trying to cash in on the frenzy leaving us old motorheads outpriced. Even prices from the reputable suppliers has gotten stupid. I gotta say, I do like the timing and the idea of busting these guys at Carlisle in front of the all the collectors and enthusiasts. It kind of broadcasts "Seller beware".


Gosh I miss the old days of getting parts out of junkyards or dirty basements or barns and refurbishing them yourself. Or even finding good deals at Carlisle for that matter. Sigh.
