Market commentary

Offered at Barrett Jackson in 2003 where it bombed at a $48,000 bid but that was before B J sold the Howard Hughes Buick earlier this year for $1.5 million. There is a time and place for every car and this was this Chryslers time, in the wake of The Aviator movie and the Buick sale. If there was any money around it should have been grabbed.
