Default Barrett Jackson

Just letting all the gearheads know that the Barrett Jackson auction starts tomorrow, I usually like to watch the first couple days because the cars go cheap enough for the average person to afford.

While I enjoy watching, I have mixed emotions inasmuch some ppl have some old
beater and figure it is worth a million $$$ and want that for it.
We have all seen it with many things.
Evilpray is a good example.
A fair price is what one pays and one receives with amicable feelings of the transaction.
My Dad Always said:
" It might be worth a lot of money, but when your hungry you can't eat it"
B. Jackson is a good entertainment and takes the edge off political crap.

As much as I like the looks of the Nova's its one car I wouldn't want to own and that has something to do with something I saw when I was a kid. We use to do 24hr towing and I remember my dad hauling in a Nova that had been hit by a water truck, the car was split clean in half at the driver seat and the lady driving it got killed. It sat here for a couple weeks before it was hauled off for scrap but it will always be a memory thats burned into my head.

plus a few years ago there were commercials on tv that said the "NOVA" didnt sell well in mexico or something like that beacuse nova translated into "it dont go" lol

Here we can see Barret Jackson show but only on Velocity channel and I don't have it :-(

For me anything over $30K US is too expensive for a fun weekend car or truck.

For cheap fun I think FFR kit still give you a good bang for the buck, the 818 coupe catch ALL my younger son attention...

Yes, i never liked those unibody cars, but, we had a 74 nova 6 banger for a while way back when. I think it even had leaf springs in the back. Mike

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
