Whining rant on price$

Hovering at $.809 here in most places. Costco has it at $.799. Depending on who is talking, this may end by summer, or it may go this way for a few years.

I hope it lasts for trailer season.
Sure would be sweet to have it around the current 95.9.
I put a whole lot of miles going up there every weekend...
 
Guessing at where oil prices are going is next to impossible. Anybody who does is just as likely to be correct as the weathermen are (i.e. wrong 90% of the time).

I don't know if I could sell my car. I have a ton of $ and time into it. I already had to sell my 69 Charger cause lack of funds.

I plan on racing a few races this year.

I can't sell for it till my girls get married, perfect wedding car!!

Don't sell!

The depression would kill you.

Any car I parted with was tough. The POS Hyundia was my wife's and I danced a jig when we got rid of it.


Nobody is heart broken when they sell their old Ford Taurus.

Enjoy your R/T. You have it to drive it man. It is not a commodity or a stock share. It is all yours. It is not influenced by market trends, popular opinion, eMpTy V, Hollywood, North Korea, Ebola, or a Kardashian's big ass.

In terms of this sport of mopar cars... the greedy have tried to kill the fun. In 5 years I have traded up and down several mopar and f body parts. I guess I have broke even, because I still own my car. I still have some extra parts and will gladly share it I can. I'm not out to go on Barrett Jackson or Mecum. However, somebody is cleaning out a garage somewhere and there is a box of parts with the word mopar on it. Might be used sparkplugs, or might be a gauge cluster or turn signal for some mopar. Might get me that holy grail of front grilles in a trade.
 
unless life really goes down the drain for me,, im not selling my volare. still need to get her where i want her,, then in about 15 years im giving it to my oldest grandson who is 6 now. by then ill be mid 60's so he will get to keep her alive and kicking. she aint worth more than a grand or so but like everyone here i didnt buy it to make money, paid a grand and its still worth about that.. my grandson will get all my spare parts to make her last another 20 yrs or more.
 
I thought about selling my Volare a few years ago but the guys on the other F body forum (many of whom I see here now) talked me out of it. I was hurt, out of work and on Disability and down. I am again working but still have not "caught up" Fortunately I have most of what I need to get my car rolling on its own again right here already other than tires paint and such... though I have had to cannibalize stuff set aside for this car for other stuff that I gotta re replace now.
and when the Count stops someone in the road and pays someone $10 grand for a clapped out 69 RR that doesn't bode well for those of us in reality... now everyone thinks their clapped out rust bucket is worth at least that much.... some of the prices initially paid on fast n Loud are more than the cars would be worth "after" resto
