    I understand ....but you can not compare for example a daily driver with the market of 250GTO. Two completely different cup of coffee here.....

    I’m sorry Sir but you seem to miss my point, at least partially.
    While I have bought, sold or brokered sales of 1000+ (& personally owned over 100) vintage cars, I’ve never really considered or look at them as “market” commodities like some here do.
    In my mind, each car, regardless of make or model (or perceived “market value” by investors, speculators or wannabe such pretending to be car enthusiasts) stands on its own merits, nothing more, nothing less
    Also, in my mind, to say something like 250 GTOs, 365GTB/4s, Maserati 300Ss or Tucker Torpedos each have some kind of “market” value range is about as silly or stupid as you said about money being out there and anyone constantly referring into such are usually more enamored by & focused on the money than the actual cars, making them appear more like aforementioned investor/speculator/wannabes than real car guys.

    To put it differently, for me personally, if there’s a one 250 GTO for sale at $3M and another for $50M, it won’t make any difference to since I’m not looking to buy nor have money to pay for one at either price, but if I was to asked to perform some work on either one, I would charge same hourly rate as I would if someone wanted me to work on their Model T Ford.
