car market sucks right now , it seems everyone with a collection of vintage stuff is on the auction block , and it's running down values .
Many collectors are aging out. I have picked up good 40's and 50's cars in the past 10 years that I never thought I could in their hey day of the 80's. Estates are getting liquidated. I am hoping to be around in 20 years to see what happens with the muscle car market.car market sucks right now , it seems everyone with a collection of vintage stuff is on the auction block , and it's running down values .
I have to agree with this... "Boomers" are getting too old to play with cars anymore or dying off and their widows or kids are liquidating.Many collectors are aging out.

Out of curiosity I checked out the rest of the guy's collection that sold. Most of them went for bargain prices. Several seemed really high. I thought the 300 was a super deal, expected $60-80k.
He had 2 B-bodies, they went high, perhaps their market is still strong.
$84,700: 1964 base Fury convertible with 426 wedge, 4-speed, blue, I thought the body looked a bit wavy, no underbody shots
$280,500: 1967 Belvedere I 2-door sedan, stripper with a hemi & 4-speed, red, superb survivor
I have been holding off 3 years now in finding the like 66 GTO I had in school. I see the same cars listed going on 14 months and no movement in price. Soooo here I am here looking for a 69 Sport Fury with at least a 383 as that looks to be the better bang for the buck right now. 4 speed would be niceThere is still Ef-it money out there and plenty of it. Just dwindling numbers with it interested in these cars. There will still be cars that get high money but again I believe there wont be as many and we will see the numbers slowly come down.
People are still asking stupid numbers though.
