Kierh,
Ive watched your shows for years. Ive allways wondered where you get off thinking you can touch the paint of other peoples cars!!?? STOP IT!! Car show rules 101 rule #1. Dont touch!
A recent visit to the Auburn Fall RM 2020 auction showed real weak prices for cars 1930s and older. I miss the old AAC and don’t think no one is addressing this collapse in interest. .
