Repost: Barrett-Jackson auto auction in Phoenix

Seeing so many Mustangs from the 60s and 70s, some that
have been modified, makes me realize how retro the new
Mustangs really are. Mustangs still have the look!

Pretty good show this year. Amazing how the old pick-ups are heating up,
and the big old Caddys, Mercs, Chryslers..........Man those things are cool!

So many of the cars have been priced right out of reach for the
average person, but trucks are pretty plentiful and cheap. Even the
Mustang IIs and Pintos are hot.

Maybe tax breaks for the wealthy would increase employment. They could
hire more lackeys to keep their cars shined up. Aargh!

And, if I had 200-300K to spend on a nasty vintage Mustang that's never been
driven on the street, I'd drive it home through the rain and road salt and
then take it to the local car wash. Antiques, coins, stamps and many other
items are for collectors - cars are meant to be driven!
