I was going to say I don't think the high end classic car market will be noticeably effected by the economy, but then I remembered an article in the paper yesterday about a Lamborghini dealer in Cali that sold off about 54 Lambos in a few days, which was a major percentage of all Lambos sold in the U.S., and apparently absconded with the money; he also allegedly ripped one of the casino owners for a few hundred grand by selling his Lambo and never paying the owner for it.
The ones I'm still sort of remembering, I saw a couple hot rod roadsters and a couple antique'ish pre-40's cars, very nice examples, go for way under $50k...the roadster I'm thinking went for $29k and I woulda paid that in a heartbeat...two or three times during the televised parts I watched I even said to my wife "wow, I'd seriously sell my Supra and buy that".
