Unfortunately, the more SSP's attract attention from collectors, the more this is going to occur. Dealers only flip what is in high demand. Gripe and complain all you want, it will only get worse as the values increase.

There has always been demand for these cars. The problem is that more and more people, most of them dealers in one way or another, are showing up trying to flip the cars for a quick profit. Why buy from them if you can find a car that's just as nice from a member or private seller? If they aren't making any $$$, eventually they will go away. They won't do it here.

how long should you keep a car, before it is considered to be flipping? for the comment on a 86 going for 5000 on ebay, but a nice car cannot get 9000.00 on the sight, who's fault is that? it is like the 85, i knew i could not buy that car and do all the detail it has for what i paid for it. he even told me if i get tired of it, he would buy it back, for what i paid him.

1.)The person who bought it was not informed enough to figure out it's not worth anywhere near that. 2.)Someone just had to have it no matter the cost. 3.)Shill bidding and the car never actually sold. I'm glad you had a good experience with buying your car. This thread really isn't about your car, though. It's about a guy buying a car and flipping it a week later on eBay. If you want to throw $1 or $2K away to someone for doing nothing, I'm sure lots of guys here could use the $$$ to help fund their restorations.

not everybody that has the lights and sirens are wannabes. just a small percentage, and thankfully they are swiftly becoming a minority.

As for the Nebraska car it could could have been bought for approximatly 9k last week. Now this guy wants 13,995.00??? It is a 10k car all day, if you like all white cars. I personaly like the car but not for 14k. If he owned it before that explains the price, because he must have sold it to the ford dealer, who sold it to Stubes, or sold it back to Morrison. As the dealers keep buying the same cars back and forth (they do this alot) the prices just keep getting higher. In this case the fact the seller is trying to make 5 grand in a week just shows how greedy these guys are. FIVE THOUSAND DOLLARS PROFIT..........in a week??? I don't have anything to lose here, heck I have 9 of these cars. The more they sell the more my cars are worth I suppose. The dealers and flippers can all hang out at org. We don't let it go on here.

I have to admit though, even with a 20 year old Mustang I feel like a dork sometimes when I drive my car to a show.....and that's without the markings on it and with the lights covered!

+1 on that Eric.
another example is the non LEO who feels the need to put lights (yellow beacon, yellow strobes etc) on a personal vehicle. Truck, suv etc. it just screams out "look at me look at me". I don't understand it myself.
