Re: Looks like the time has arrived.......

although both places you have refrenced always seems to have the highest prices.

I often wonder why the prices have not come around on these cars.

The only thing I can think of is alot of folks say the real muscle cars stopped being made in the earley 70'S

Larry:

I believe your last statement to be correct.

Ford - 1971 Mustang 429 Super Cobra Jet Drag pack, 1971 Boss 351 Mustang.

Chrysler - 1971 Hemi anything or 440 SIX PACK cars.

GM - Chevrolet, Buick, Olsmobile, Pontiac still had a performance version of their former icon for 1971, with one outstanding last gasp for the '73,'74 year for Pontiac's SD 455.

Re: Looks like the time has arrived.......

Warren,
I've been watching LS-6 cars for a while and the certainally have arrived and correctly so. It seems overdue. Any thoughts as to when the LT-1 cars will do similiar things.?? Maybe they will when the big blocks all go over 100K.

Re: Looks like the time has arrived.......

Dave:

I don't think it will be too far in the distant future. I've been tempted to buy every '70,'71 LT-1 coupe I see show up for sale, with some form of documentation that is listed at what I think is below FMV. I believe these cars to be the last bargain out there.

Re: Looks like the time has arrived.......

Warren,
The LT-1's are considerably rarer than the LS-5 cars and I personally think they perform better than the Big Block cars. JMHO. They certainally are easier to maintain. Just something else to watch I guess.

Re: Looks like the time has arrived.......

Warren, As I have one of these rare, original and documented cars, I am eager for the recognition.

[Alan T.]

Re: Looks like the time has arrived.......

I do as well ('70 LT-1 convertible), but I have to accept the fact that the "recognition" for me is not going to be financial 'cause I ain't ever selling it, no how, no way!!! (of course, thats assuming my wife extends her gracious permission of my continued ownership of it along with my other toys). But I have to admit, with the "stupid money" prices alot of cars are bringing now, not just Vettes, it sure gets your attention, huh?

Steve:

You and me both!

By the way, the red LS-6 coupe bids ended at $155,100, not meeting reserve.
