    Ryans-GSX Have fun, life is short.

    Prices are getting really crazy and I think its going to get a whole lot more crazy sooner than later. I thought prices had kind of flattened out a bit but I think I was wrong judging by recent sales at Mecum. I wonder if this trend will follow at Barrett Jackson or other Mecum Auctions. Only time will tell but I can only state that prices have really never gone down on these cars only up year after year.

    BJ, was way high for some. Once again i see little love for Buicks except for another GN:confused:. The last one built hit $550K, that's crazy money. And don't let me get started on the GM "square bodies", trucks in general:rolleyes:. Anybody see the 70 GS with painted white top? It looked nice but don't know anything about it.

    I sold my GN a few months back, didn’t do too bad, but the influx of money doesn’t last but a few months, bought a new to me Tahoe to replace my rusty fuel leaking Safari van, paid for one of our dogs surgery, paid some bills, went out for dinner, bought a new battery for wife’s Tahoe, and now I’m back to broke, LOLOL
    The economy will deplete in a hurry any proceeds from a sale, even if I got 100,000 for my GS ( dreaming haha) it would last a year, that’s it.
    It’s all proportional.
    Back in the 80’s when you could buy a nice ‘70 Stage 1 for cheap ( under 10 grand) everything else was cheaper also.

    Selling a car is like planning the stock market. Good luck!

    $7,000,000,000,000 of very lightly used, guvmt printed COVID bucks have infected the musclecar market, just like every other part of the economy.

    Hey I’ve downsized a bit still got too many but you know how that goes.
    Later this spring looks like I’ll be retiring and after that I will be splitting most of my time between Cat city and Phoenix so we can catch up soon.
