Looks like you have more cars on your layout than C.Miller Chevrolet.(To other forum members C.Miller was a Chevy Dealer in Cleveland who had very amusing car commercials) Tom,we’ll have to find a picture of C.Miller for the other forum members to see.[:slight_smile: Yes Jim . C.Miller sold Corvairs also![;)] Later…Keith

Good morning to all! Just read article on muscle car auctions in Arizona , said Hemi Cudas were going from one to two MILLION dollars!!Very rare car indeed!
My muscle car was a 67 Cutlass 442.

I don’t believe they went that hi, I think the top price for a Hemi-Cuda was around $325K. If you want to look at the auction results log on to www,barrett-jackson.com . Muscle cars and hot rods were the big money cars this year, although a few classics did see some pretty hefty price tags. [|(]

Laz57 – Yep

Here comes the Judge

This model is made by Franklin Mint, 1:43 scale. It is one of the most details cars I have in this scale.

You’ve got a better check book than mine.

I most probably have as much invested in die cast cars as I do my trains. [:D]

“The Judge” is so cool! I know that color orange is still one of my favorite colors - in fact, all of the racing planes I do has that same color incorporated into the paint schemes. I even went to the Pontiac dealer (circa 1969?) and bought a bunch of those full size “Judge decals” and put them on the upper and lower wing surfaces.

Thanks for the memories, Tom!

Muscle was hot at Barrett-Jackson, but I was more surprised by the Viper-powered Chrysler Airflow modified that went for 550K. There were also two 1971 383 Cudas that topped 100K in bidding - 383, not Hemi or 440 powered.
