I've been working on a 57 panel to be my daily, and when it's close enough may have to sell one of the pickups I now have to pay for the final work on the panel - hate to let red go, but it's worth the most and the Frankentruck will do the picking-up necessary

I might hafta take something less than I'd like in order to move red, just because I can't justify 3 trucks, and I'm not a 'collector', but my profit will be that I've had the use of it for quite a few years, and [in greater 'style'], saved much over newer rigs I might have had

I'd say that burb should be worth 15+, but you hafta find the right person - top dollar will only be found w/ much patience, so like joker sez ,,,, just drive it grin or put it in Barret-Jackson

Bill ya that about somes it up,Thats probley what will happen just drive it and have fun, don't get me wrong when I say were all in it for the profit, I just think most guys who buy and sell and collect are doing it as a investment so to speek.I had a oldtimmer tell a few years ago
that we are all just caretakers of someone elses
stuff.Funny thing about Barrett Jackson is it has screwd up the hobby somewhat because like it or not we all watch it and then the wheels start to turn and we all see big dollar signs.I have friends who own many, many , many cars and you get crazy with envy but then again they have to pay all that insurance and dmv fee's not me.But sure is nice to see all of it.Chris
