It must be something in the water.........just before Christmas there was a guy locally that listed a 55 Thunderbird. 292 standard, nothing special. Probably a $30k car. He had it listed for $155k with the statement "similar cars at Barrett Jackson had sold for $250k - $300k" ....... yeah, maybe a 57 F Code raced at Daytona.

......... some peoples kids.

Canada Dollars United States Dollars
1 CAD = 0.955153 USD 1 USD = 1.04695 CAD
