Hey Jacquie...sorry to hear that your experience wasn't all that great in LV. That sucks...as you should have had some time to have fun...not constantly run around between buildings and tents.

Glad to hear that you made it home safe...

Some friends went out to Las Vegas, planned this trip for 6 months! They invited me, but I'm going to SEMA.

Their plans were to make this a fun vacation while taking 18 cars out there to sell.

I'm guessing they did not have as much fun as anticipated.

Thanks for the on-the-sight review Jacquie.

My 5 cents !!

Most auctions are made up of about 75% Dealers 15% True Collectors and about 5% bottom feeders looking for steals..
Now with the economy the way it is I would think that the 75% dealers are not moving inventory as quickly if at ALL.
These are the guys that you see selling back and forth to each other at these auctions and I think that 75%(dealers buying) has dropped a LOT. Now people would think the market is falling worse. Like someone said if you are not there to see these cars in PERSON you would be surprised, what you would see in person. Its ALL eyecandy to the eye's but for the 15%(true collectors) in house it is JUNK !!! Im sure the 5%(bottom feeders) just got bigger in their minds !!

Yes , I must say it was a real eye opener to go there, and see the "Real deals" vs the Lipstick cars !

I worked at a parts store back in Montana through the 1990's and had become known as a Camaro source. I had one person bring in pics of his 1969 Z/28 Camaro he had bought new. I am pretty sure it is same car. Flat hood rally green white stripes rally sport z. also it did have chambered exhaust on it. If you watch the part where they show the original photo the car has a Montana License plate on the front. The first two #'s on the plate signify the county where car is registered. I had the DVR record the event and had my wife watch the green Z/28. Because green is her favorite color. She is the one who noticed the original Conrad Montana license plate in the photograph.
