Auction prices

[66BigBackWindow]

So I was watching a Mecum auction from earlier this year last night. A 1966 C10, 283/power glide, custom cab, big window, short bed, that was restored, very well but maybe not truly correct, sold for $45,000. Holy smokes. The things I noticed was that it had stainless hinges on the hood, the body side trim looked stainless not aluminum, and the bed was painted body color told me that it was nice restoration/show truck but I was left wondering who paid that much for this truck. There was no back story on it other than it was original motor/trans. Just to compare, a 70 Mach 1 sold for $62,000. I know its only a ford but comparing a sought after muscle car to a very nicely done truck and the prices were not that far off makes me wonder. I also understand that they are not making them any more and people are really looking for them. What are your thoughts. Is this just nuts for this truck or is this a trend we will see continue?
