High prices are interesting, considering maybe those listening are
contemplating what they are leaving their next generation, but for
me just means suppliers know their customers must have the means to
pay whatever they want to charge.<br>

64/66 BJ8s all finished hopefully.<br>

<div>I see the list has been fairly quiet lately and thought I'd
take the time to see if anyone has any thoughts on the Barrett
Jackson car auction. I saw the car, a Golden Beige BJ8, go for
$143,000. With a 10% premium tacked on to that, a bit over
$157,000! In the opinion of this group, was that just a case of
bidders getting in to a pissing contest, or, was the car worth
it? (And of course we don't know what condition the engines was
in, was it a frame off, etc.) So for the sake of conversation,
let's say it had really good bones, no rust and ran like a top.
And was an original Golden Beige with red leather car.</div>
<div> Personally, I was glad to see it go for such a large
price. Was it worth it? In my opinion, yes, especially if the
person buying it knows and loves A-H's. If I had the money,
would I pay that much? No. If I had that kind of money, I'd buy
a project and do most of the work myself.</div>
