And here I thought it was just me who was a little P O'd about that! That's ok though, I recorded the whole 39 hours on my PVR. I fast forwarded through all the camaros, mustangs, vettes and couldn't see any reason to keep it. So I deleted the whole thing mostly cause I just wasn't interested in being bored by all those same cars over and over again. I guess if I was a chebby or Ford guy it would be a little different.

that's why hemi cars didn't have a warranty

because they were so well built.

check out Mecom Auctions on 720HD for me on the East coast. Saw 6 Olds in one hour including 69-H/O.

Yeah, because grandma needed a warranty just uncase something happened to her hemi gtx on the way to chruch on sunday...

They were intended as FACTORY RACE CARS! Guess what. What few were built, were raced and abused...
Of course you're gonna blow something up beating the **** out of it nonstop. However, given the opportunity, I'd love to have bought one new to beat up on...
Not to many cars could keep up with the hemi cars. How many cars that were street production cars ran mid 13's new on stock tires in their new car reviews?

I'm waiting to see what the 2 other 71's still awaiting the stage will bring.


Only at Barrett-Jackson. Those are not real world prices.
