The whims of the collector car market always amaze me. A few years ago a Hemi ‘Cuda was a million-dollar car. Yesterday the most perfectly restored, numbers-matching example I’ve ever seen went for $155,000.00. Per the broadcast the resto receipts were four inches thick and totaled over $250K. And yet there were lifted Ford diesel pickups going for north of $100K.

Ford GTs were also sure money, as were all the “Eleanor” Mustang replicas. Personally I’ll never understand the appeal of the Eleanor cars. But obviously they have appeal.
