  • Barret-Jackson-what did you see?

    As usual, there's NO pattern at B-J. Prices all over the place. Nice 4 BBL 58 Vette-$140K, nice 57 Fuelie Vette-$70K. And a so-so pro touring post model Chevelle, that will be out of style before i finish this, went for MORE than the 57 Vette Fuelie. Discuss

      There were some good deals. . . well, relatively. And there were some cars I wouldn't want if you gave it to me. I'm not a huge Woody fan but this thing was awesome, $165K.


      Just groovin' to my own tune.

          Sunday seemed like the crowd was much smaller and the prices were back to the Tues. - Weds. range in most cases.
          With the buyers and seller premiums (17%) B-J did real good.

            I realized another reason I watch BJ. When I see a car I really like go across the block for alot of money I think to myself, with a little effort that dust collecting lump in my garage could be every bit as cool :-[.

              I'll clarify what I'm about to say by stating that my taste in vehicles runs wierd! I probably only watched a 1/4 of the TV coverage but there were vehicles that that I thought brought way more then they should have and then there were some cars that went so cheap they could have been bought and Ebayed or put on Racing Junk at a profit. I'll sum it up by saying that place is just a whole different World then what I'm used to!

                Yeah, like the Silver Dollar Willys that went for $42K, BEFORE commissions. He's had that up locally for $190K. He must be pissing all over himself

                  Speaking of Vettes.........the Pro Team Corvette
                  guy was on the front row.

                  He bought a real nice black convertable....'58-'59 for
                  a song. When the camera panned over to him, he tried
                  hiding his face.

                  Later he was all smiles with some other celebs sitting
                  by.......go figure.

                  I thought the purported Kennedy ambulance was interesting.
                  Evidently the evidence wasn't enough to carry the day.....or price.

                    That ambulance resold minutes after the gavel dropped. A lady (blonde, sits in the front row, never smiles)
                    with a museum in Grand Junction bought it - she had wished I'da bought it remorse I guess so she cut a deal with the short term owner.

                      Read on.........interesting

                      On Saturday, right after Barrett-Jackson sold the ambulance that didn't carry President John F. Kennedy's body following his assassination, another collector bought it for "slightly more" than the $120,000 auction price — and she's no stranger to politics.
