Classic Rides - The Price?

Описание: Think you can read the market better than the bidders? We put that to the test with a live Hemmings sold-car roundup—calling final prices and then revealing the hammer on a lineup that spans a 1966 Dodge W100, a first-year 1970 Monte Carlo, a polarizing 1993 Cadillac Allanté, a white-on-white 1973 Pontiac Firebird, a slick 1959 VW Beetle resto-mod, and a modern-legend 2014 Toyota FJ Cruiser. The fun isn’t just in the guesses; it’s in what each sale says about how collectors value originality, documentation, drivability, and cultural cool right now.

We share why workhorse trucks with clean bones still sell strong, how period-correct Mopars earn a premium, and where personal-luxury Chevys are heading as younger buyers join the hunt. The Allanté’s Italian styling meets American expectations in a cautionary tale of hype vs. ownership reality. Meanwhile, the FJ Cruiser shocks with a number that reflects overlanding culture, Toyota’s reliability halo, and the power of discontinued icons. If you track classic car values, you’ll get practical signals you can use before your next bid or garage purchase.

Then we pivot to quick-hit news and context. Racing calendars are thinning as the season winds down. On the industry side, we break down EV retrenchment, hybrid resurgence, and why buyers still prefer paper documents at the dealership despite the digitization push. Add a fast walk through auto history—from interchangeable parts to drive-by-wire—and the trendlines snap into focus: practicality and trust win, while timeless design keeps pulling hearts (and wallets) back to analog charm.

Join us live on Saturdays to play along, drop your guesses in the chat, and put your market instincts to the test. If you enjoy the show, follow, subscribe, and share it with a friend who can’t resist calling the next hammer price. Your take: which car was the best buy?
