Chasing Cars...................
This guy really iritates me...........................a few episodes ago his buddy (dealer) sells him ($16k ) a very nice early 60's Jag sedan that was traded in. Mean while back at his shop, his guys are doing a meticulous resto on a early Jag roadster.
Next sequence shows him at some high-end auction with both cars and he lists the sedan at no reserve ......and only gets $15K. Minus any listing/sales fees. The roadster was estimated between $100-125k and only brings $91K. He says "I broke even" If I broke even with that much work, I'd take it back home and re-think my position.
I'm in the business as well and would NEVEr list any car at auction with no reserve.........it's like playing with a loaded gun.....too risky. How the H#LL is this guy supposed to make money ?? It seems like he's always losing his #ss
