this is slightly off topic, but when it comes to values, I think were all interested, last night watching the barrett Jackson auction, always interested in older mopar muscle car prices, a 750 mile 1980 transam skyrocked the highest price of the night until this beautiful '62 pickup rolls out, bidding frenzy finally stopped at a whopping $180,000. wow.....

 

My dad was at the auction, sent me some pics of it. It was advertised as a power wagon but was a m37. Thought he said it sold for $170k but doesn't matter still a ridiculous price

 

thats insane. i just looked it up. it sold 2 years ago for 88,000

 

final sale price with commission was 187,000

 

Here's a couple photos he sent me, makes the legend power wagons look like a good deal

 

With either 4.56 or 4.88 ratio mph to speed ratio has to be the highest amount paid for the slowest vehicle at BJ. It should have been painted military green with an Army logo on the doors. Just my $.02.

 

Here's some more pictures he sent to me tonight, almost makes me want to finish mine and send it there!

 

good pics gyman, weather this time of year, is a great excuse to be in Scottsdale for bj.

 

Very true although there is only 5° difference in temps right between where I live in Canada and Phoenix. My wife, kids and I are going down on the 13th of February for a week. I'm not going for climate change as much as get away from the rat race for a while

 

Wow!
I have a 1941 Dodge Military and a 4BT for it. Maybe I should put it on the front burner!
