The black and yellow Dusters that got the big money were MCACN Gold Certified cars. That means every paint mark on chassis, every bolt nut clamp, plated finish on fasteners, all parts correct for that year, no flaws anywhere on the cars, numbers match, perfect museum quality top tier best of breed cars possible. They are best of the best collector grade cars probably never to be driven trailered to the big shows sit in a museum etc. The high rollers will bid against each other do what it takes to get them cause cars at that level are scarce.
Then we got bozos don't understand what they are and say I can buy a Duster off Craigslist for cheaper? Therefore those Concourse Gold Certified Dusters are not worth it? Sure yeah thats an accurate comparison uh huh pat yourself on the back great observation.
