Muscle Cars Still Sell Like Hotcakes!

Posted on January 8th, 2010 by admin

Now the first round of bidding in January 2010 behind us, it is time to take a suspect in 2010 was to the world of classic muscle cars …… And I think there should be a great year! It is what the economy is said, always sell toys (such as aircraft, yachts and) seem Muscle Cars!

Even bad weather does not stop at Barrett Jackson by the passage of 68 million U.S. through the inventory of the auction last week, which is 11% more for 2009. Tell you who was more than the fact that 40% of bidders has done that for the first time, and 35% of suppliers were also new at Barrett Jackson. These statistics are impressive and show that the collector car hobby is as strong as ever, but they show muscle cars are the reasons? Well …… 7 of top 10 sellers of Barrett-Jackson were muscle cars! Here is the list of top 10 money maker – and see if you can spot a trend is as follows:

1929 Hamilton Metal Plane H47 Series # 65 Airplane – $ 671,000

1964 Shelby Cobra Roadster – $ 478,500

1963 Shelby Cobra Roadster – $ 401,500

1935 Cadillac Series 40 Fleetwood Imperial Convertible – $ 302,500

2011 Ford Mustang GT Coupe with Glass Roof – $ 300,000

1970 Plymouth Hemi Super Bird 2 Door Hardtop – $ 286,000

In 1952 Watson Roadster Custom Blastolene – $ 280,500

FR500 Racecar 2008 Ford Mustang Fastback – $ 275,000

1970 Ford Mustang Boss 429 Fastback – $ 275,000

1967 Ford Mustang Fastback Custom – $ 253,000

That’s right – Muscle Cars will own 70% of the top 10 best-selling cars! If you (the fact that a plane was on this list and no, it was not a “muscle-Plane”), this means that 7 of 9 are pure American muscle cars, and I understand why it is case.

1) Calendar

Without question, muscle cars of the hottest segment in the automotive collector current, and some quick math shows that the boys could not these new cars as they are now in their mid 50s to early 60s means .. … and they have little money to spend. They will, after this dream she had always wanted to meet! It would ask how your wife will be back for the first time – you’re only 58 and she is 18! In fact, we would compare on a dangerous path. Moving on.

In the automotive collection seems a trend that continued harvesting in vintage cars to hot is usually older than 40 years …… But this means that the government will overcome the muscle cars? Perhaps, but I think not. Read more.

2) Style

For some reason, not 1960’s and 70’s muscle car time is not displayed, even in old age. “Model T” are like old cars. Packard like old cars. Search DeSoto like old cars. Even a ‘57 Chevy seems more …… but not a ‘69 GTO! Kids today flock to these vehicles as older only. It is a major reason why the 2010 Mustang, Challenger, Camaro and a few familiar lines, and this is no accident that the car was fast in the film the last block buster made in 1967 and not 2007.

3) Personalization

The secondary market is hotter than ever, it is to create pieces of old muscle cars just as fast to do – and comfortable – like new …. but without sacrificing style. Crate engines, brakes, chassis, R-134 air conditioning, paddle-shifted automatic overdrive ….. All of you here, and people buy it like crazy. Many people have asked how fast the world of internal combustion engine of the car will end up as the next 10 years we have moved from fossil fuels to something else …. but I think when we will come there way. Someone, somewhere, will come with a way to run a big block Ford in cow manure, if that’s what you need. I guarantee it.
