Will: You missed Eureka. There was a 1960 survivor car, 7,500 total miles and
looked just as it did when it rolled out of the showroom. Untouched original.
Ray Decker won best of show with his almost perfectly restored 60 sitting right
next to it. No criticism of Ray's car, but I probably would have given the
award to the survivor car.
One of the reasons for all the customs: as you well know it is much more
difficult to restore any car to original than to customize one. And also
normally more expensive to do so. Lenny Coop will continue to get high prices
for his vintage restorations.

Sammie, the original dubs are disappearing and it's very hard as you know to
find one that's original. It's the same as asking "Find an original 32 Ford."
Fundamentally I think that the prices are crazy and I agree with you, something
that's been hacked shouldn't be worth all that much. I think Barrett Jackson
and a few other "Auction TV" shows have changed that so now we are seeing lots
of hack-em-ups going for really big bucks.
What I also get from thesamba thread as well is that some of the same whiners
are also perpetuating that feeding frenzy. I give Randy Carlson about as much
credit for driving up prices on hack jobs as anybody.

Thanks: Now I remember seeing that thing on the Samba in the whines forum. I
usually keep up with "the whines." I wonder why they didn't put in a sunroof
and some skylights and they could've sold it as an "origianal" 12 window?

Can you link the samba discussion? Assume it was in the whines split bus forum.

Was the auction live or did it actually happen in March of this year? The
reason I ask is that I found a Samba discussion about a CCC DC auction and
people were ripping the salvage title, chrome bumpers etc.

OMG he just said a 21 window went for $200,000. Wow, God forbid, f I get hard
up for cash I should give that A-hole a call : ) He lost 4k on the Ghia. Was
that a fair price for the double cab?

It used to be the "HD Channel" if that helps.

Just in case you didn't see the ads, CCC will be auctioning a split double cab
on the show Tuesday night.
