Palmer, If you look at what collectors pay the highest dollars for, in many cases it's cars built for racing and usually those with a successful racing pedigree. Modern day COPO's, Cobra Jets and Drag Paks will all have a high net worth. We've already seen some go for big coin off the auction block at Barrett and Mecum.
