I LOVE the Silver Ford GT !











I can see this exact car in my garage next to my Z06 one day.
1970/1971, LT1, 4 speed, Leguna Grey (below) or... Steel Cities Grey, Cortez Silver, Nevada Silver
(My favorite colors in the 1970/71 Corvettes)

I'm just not sure what the original owner was thinking when he ordered a blue interior....








How about a 1969 Camaro with a LSA motor !

I have to way this is one of the COOLEST resto mod Corvettes I have ever seen.

Not only is it one of my favorite color combo's (Grey exterior/Red interior) but it has a LT5 Motor in it too !

There were some absolutely gorgeous cars at that auction. Would be interesting to know what prices some of them brought.

I'm planning on going next month when they visit Chicago.

No, but I have it recorded from yesterday. Hopefully its on there.
You mean the 1969 L88 ?

I did watch the Orange Yenko on the block stall out at $295,000.
I don't know if it sold or not.

LOL.. No I did mean 1967... But just realized that yesterday I was watching a TAPED Mecum auction from Sept 2013 which was also in Dallas. The '67 sold for 3.2 million last year.... I thought i was watching a live auction. Lol

Damm... the Second Gen Trans Am's are starting to get some attention...

1973 Pontiac Trans Am Super Duty went for $120,000




That Resto Mod LS7 427 Camaro sold for $51,000.
I should have bought that... that was SWEET !




I'm surprised the HERO Edition 2011 ZR1 (1 of 1 ever made) only sold for $89,000
For a 1 of 1 car I would have assumed it would sell for more.

Yeah but what is HERO edition?? And what came extra beside the badge?

The LS7 resto Camaro was definitely a steal.
