Default Barrett-Jackson

I was watching The Barrett-Jackson auto auction that was on yesterday and a 1969 Ford Boss 429 came across the blocks and sold for $370K. it had 2,650 miles on it and was a gorgeous maroon color, all original survivor. Has to be the best one existence. They said it sold for just over $4,000 when new. The only way to watch Barret-Jackson is to record it and then fast forward through all the commercials and cars of no interest, otherwise you spend more time watching commercials than the auction.

I watched it on tv live while watching the live steam on my iPad. Watch the cars go thru while not having to see the commercials.

There was a 2012 ZR1 with 1100 miles sold for $56,000. That had to be a no reserve car since I don't know anyone who would be that foolish to let it go for that price. He could have gotten more for it from car max!
