Too bad I have to go to work tonight. Plus I gotta get out in the garage and put the dash back together.
Thanks for the heads up. I will watch it for a little while anyway. :thumbs:

Today will be the first time I've ever seen the auction. Just saw a '69 Shelby GT 500 go for $47,500. :eek: Almost bought one used in 1975! :mad

Looks like the Chevy's took the show......All five top money positions.
I sure would have been a bidder on that yellow 63 Split Window Pro Street....
If I was there it would have been mine. :banghead:

Re: Barrett-Jackson on Speed now! (Stewart's74)
That 67 435 ragtop was sweet, but $135K plus 8% is just under $146K seems a bit too rich in my opinion. What about the 1969 Camaro that fetched $112K. This guy paid $100K for a '54 vette as well - Oh to have a bit of cash!

Re: Barrett-Jackson on Speed now! (Stewart's74)
I went to the auction on Thurs. Two words to describe it- awesome and overwhelming! So many cars to look at; such few dollars!
You do see things on tv that you wouldn't at the auction. For example- the Barrett Jackson Reps standing next to bidders as they outbid one another. I only saw that on tv but not when I was there since we had to stand way in the back.
It's well worth going for $20.... we spent four hours there. (and 2.5 hours at home on Speedvision that night!)
