I Wonder How Much Longer It Will Last

We're coming up on the third anniversary of Carroll's passing and items with his signature are still demanding premium and in some cases outrageous prices. I've contemplated selling my airbag cover a few times, but have come to the decision that the car just wouldn't be the same without it.

 

I wonder how much longer it will last?

I'm fortunate enough to have both of my cars signed and in the event that I'd ever want to sell them I think Carroll's autograph will always hold value and be a selling point. Whenever people look at the cars they always make a positive comment about his autograph.

I think the signature is pretty cool. I'm not super high on the autopen signature but that being said I'm getting a signature super snake with the autopen signature. The autopen signature looks real clean but it's no replacement for knowing the man himself signed your car. I think the coolest signatures have been when I've seen pics of CS sitting in the car signing it. Very cool.

Well, my guess is that it may last one more generation. We're already well into a generation of people who for the most part aren't much into cars or even driving. I can see cars like ours becoming illegal to drive in 20 years, the way things are going with the climate-change green stuff.

I have a ton of stuff signed by him, Books, Magazines, Posters, Banners, Photos, Mustang Visors, Hats, Coats, Tee Shirts, Die Cast Cars, .......... There is only ONE item that I will not Sell. A Poster of the Series 1 that he Autographed to me when I was given a Contract to produce the "Tribute Edition Shelby" Mustangs & Trucks. Most of the items were signed in person while at Shows and while meeting with him. I had COA's for some items but most were lost in the Mobile Home Fire. Once in a while I will list a few items on Ebay when I need the Money for a project. I might list a few soon to raise Money for my Campaign for County Commissioner. So far I have put up $1,900 of my own Money, still need to raise another $6,500.
