Ah yes, the "DC Solar" scam.
If I had millions of dollars of other people's money, my car collection would look much different than this.
Who the hell collects old Fiat 500's?
Over 400 cars and only a handful valued in the six-figure range.
This auction will perhaps generate ~$20 million. Add to that perhaps another $20 million in other assets (property, cash, jewelry, etc.)
For a Ponzi scheme which was estimated to be at $800 million, and the hard time the owners scammers are going to be doing, this collection of cars looks like small potatoes.

A guy I used to know, Dave Kindig (douche now though, since turning 'famous') charges $300k+ for a normal restoration/modification vehicle.

Been my dream car since I was in high school. Saw a couple at a local car auction a few years ago, think they went for $300-400k each, too rich for me. Been kicking myself since I saw one for sale along a highway in 1980, and didn’t check it out, cause fresh out of college I had no money.
Maybe I can get lucky here?

You guys must be youngsters . Back in the day the Dodge Daytona and the Plymouth Superbird were the kings of NASCAR. They were sold at dealers so that they could be raced on the weekend. It was short lived as they were so fast the other mfg's forced them out. A buddy of mine had the Daytona with the Hemi and 4 speed and he had a lot of fun with it. Even my Corvette was no match for it in a straight line. As I look back there were many cars that changed the industry and I was lucky to live in that era.

It's not. That article was from the Fox (actual) NEWS site, not from the rest of the Fox blundering nincompoops.
Plus, I said absolutely zero anything political.
Fox itself states that most of their "news" reporting isn't actually NEWS, but biased opinions about current events. Their actual NEWS department is fairly competent.
