Looks like the economy might be doing okay after all.

One of the most extensive collections of Ford and Mercury Woodies in the world, Alexander's collection was auctioned off by RM Auctions on Thursday night in Monterey. Top seller was a gorgeous <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/gallery/nick-alexander-woodie-collection/#25">1946 Mercury Sportsman Convertible</a> (above) that went across the block and sold at $368,500.<br />
<br />
Other highlights included a super rare <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/gallery/nick-alexander-woodie-collection/#32">1948 Ford Super Deluxe Sportsman Convertible</a> that went for "just" $275,000, and an awesome, all-wheel-drive <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/gallery/nick-alexander-woodie-collection/#24">1946 Ford Super Deluxe Station Wagon</a> that brought $247,500.
