I have the live feed from post # 1.......

I also have the Inauguration on in another tab.
90 protesters arrested so far in DC, think like 12 Officers hurt.
Broken windows @ B of A, McD's, and Starbucks!!

Muscle cars are selling cheaper than I would have thought. Seems the Pro touring types are getting good money.

But I sure like watching the girl who opens the car doors. She has a very nice "rear end"

Nice turd cutter for sure.

She changed into her evening leather pants.........

Agree, I thought that LS6 with 7K original mile would go way over 100K

Noticed that real fast, this evening! Bet she's thrilled to do that job, 79 10th anniversary just went for 75,000.00

Jim Mattson's 1969 Judge just went across the auction block, sold for $85k. They had a little feature with Jim prior to that, showing him going around to inspect the Pontiacs at the auction.

So, a little bit of Pontiac exposure.

Yesterday evening they cut away with a copper colered Pontiac pulling into the stage, this evening I could hear the auction announcer describing a RA3 engine as they cut away for a commercial...same old same old...
Steve Magnuts needs to quit quoting facts about vehicles he knows little or nothing about, stick with his mopar garbage! Seems like he's just takes my a stab in the dark on some of this stuff....tell the viewing audience like "maybe" this or that spec is or option is on this particular car....I caught him saying that disc brakes were an option on a 72 Chevrolet C10 pickup....duh!

[Greg Reid]

Just saw Jim Mattison's really pretty '68 RA go for $70K. Beautiful car but they barely showed it as it was leaving the stage.
I have been watching all evening. Saw the Mattison triple red Judge. Real nice car. I can't believe some guy paid about the same for a retro modded '70 base Charger. For a while there, it seems that every car across the block was hitting 6 figures.

Did anybody happen to catch the 1958 Mercury Turnpike Cruiser a few nights ago? Not my kind of car, but it nicely optioned and well restored. However, when Steve tried to close the passenger side door.......it wouldn't close......he had to walk along the car holding the door in. Eventually, one of the other BJ workers was toying with it as it got further down the ramp. And every once in a while you see things like one brake light out!

Did the 10th anniversary with 246 miles go yet?

[Jerry H.]

Anyone notice and Spanky and Amy Assister are no longer with them as auctioneers?

[Scarebird]

^^^ yes.

poor Burt.

[TROYBOYONE]

Spanky has been gone for several years, had a falling out with B-J.

Newspaper article I read said he was with them through 2 auctions last year and then they 'parted ways' mid year.

[Wareagle]

Saw a Black 76 T/A 455 4 spd. go for 50K - Also saw a white early 70's T/A but they went to a commercial - what did that go for ?

I can only imagine what kinds of ego's the B-J wheels have. Seems like a big worship deal going on. The BJ deal keeps rolling on, kinda surprises me. There's seemingly a boatload of folks around that are financially blessed to buy all of those overpriced cars!
It's seems so funny when I was a kid in the 60's and 70's, those were all considered just a bunch of old junk cars...

[Cardo]

I have only seen 1 car in person that had gone through BJ back home here after the current owner bought it.... it was either a 69 or 70 Chevelle.... the guy had paid 140k for the car. I could not believe my eyes. Had a quick paint job on the car, hadn't even been totally taken apart before paint - mask lines here and there, even need some floor pan metal and had a half ass exhaust put on it and a rear main and tailshaft leak that had both been there for a while. I was absolutely floored. A #3 car at best for 140k.

[sonjaab]

Prices seemed LOW on many cars that went over the block.

Velocity channel is on DISH 246 in my area.

[Greg Reid]

The '58 Bonneville Fuelie did very well.
Seems like every other car was a Mustang or Corvette.
