Market commentary

Offered at Mecums Belivdere auction in 2007 where it no saled at $700,000 its subsequent history is a record of the Hemi Cudas demise, going down to $525,000, $425,000, $430,000, $400,000, $400,000 and now $375,000 without finding a single buyer in seven auctions. The poster car for overblown expectations chasing the market down. Theres nothing wrong with it, but shopworn hardly is adequate to describe its history or explain its stigma.
