The cars at BJ auction in Florida have been going dirt cheap. Unbelievable prices this year.

That car looks familiar... I wonder which build number my '99 FRC is. Maybe I can advertise it as the 3,227th FRC built since 1967 and then ask way more than it is worth. Or, I'll just continue to drive and enjoy it.

Not Really.... Shop around you can buy a car off craigslist or E-bay
for half of what there selling them there for. Chevelles going for 30,000 on BJ same car just as nice 15,000 on e-bay. BJ cars are mostly sold to collectors or museums with more money than what they know to do with........

There are good deals and not so good deals. You have to remember for the most part they show the high dollar highlight cars on TV as they are also producing a tv show.
