I saw that as well and was also surprised but then I got to thinking. BJ is into selling correct #'s matching muscle cars. They go for very high numbers. That is where BJ makes their $$$$$$. Any other cars, clones, mismatched numbers, wrong engine or trans seems to take a bath. Why? I think BJ wants to keep the market for exact cars very high and make big bucks. 15 years ago, you couldn't give a correct matching muscle car away. BJ found a market of upcoming baby boomers (like myself) who back then, could not afford those cars or were just a bit too young to buy. (In 1967 I was 13). I have a beautiful ERA cobra with a SO 427 and every option. I love the car. Would it do well on BJ. Absolutely not! Probably lucky if I got 35-40K if I were to sell on BJ. Do you notice how quick the gavel goes down on these cars? In 5-6 call outs! I have seen them hold back cars that they thought were too low and hold the cars for 15-25 call outs. Like a beautiful Buick GS 455 with rare 4 speed. Was holding at around 70K. They held the car back thinking they could get more> went for over 110K. I have never seen them do that with a replica or an incorrect car. They have an excellent marketing ploy and I congratulate them for that! Don't be fooled.
