Car pics too cool not to share

Neat thing is the museum these are in which is a Harley dealership is free to tour. We spent nothing. They also have all kinds of animals and tons of motorcycles that I know nothing about.
All those expensive cars, and the signs are handwritten Sharpie on cardboard. Love it! Only us cheeseheads would understand...
Wiscansan huh. Only 16hrs. I could hit the Saab museum in the way
I have a friend who’s a Saab guy if you need someone to go with that knows everything about them. His email is rareviggen something. He’s owned many.
All the prices shown prove that we think our cars are worth twice what they actually are.
OP
Sadly, this trickles all the way down to 4-door Plymouth Valiants and Nissan Sentras, and the like. I cannot believe the prices people are asking for crap-cars, these days. What was once a $500 beater is now suddenly worth $2,000? I don't think so!
Now having said that, this morning, I was on the receiving end of this lunacy. A bit over two years ago, I basically stole a 2000 S10 Blazer 2-door, 2WD. One owner vehicle with 71,000 miles on it. I paid $1,000 for it, replaced the shocks and tires, and put 12,000 more miles on it. This morning, I sold it to a guy who's been after me to sell it to him for two months. He handed me $6,200 for it. Truth be told, I would have probably taken $3,500-$4,000 for it, but he was so hot to have this thing that at one point, he offered me $7,000 for it. I wanted him to feel like he got a good deal (by his way of thinking), so I eventually dropped the price $800, thereby coming to the final selling price of $6,200. So, WTH? Yes, it was an exceptionally clean vehicle (absolutely perfect interior), but who in their right mind would spend that kind of coin on something as mundane as an S10 Blazer? Well, I guess Bill would. Anyway, he's happy as a lark, and I'm back to driving my diesel Dodge with 420,000 miles on it. Hell, maybe my old Dodge is now a $10,000 truck!
