At least 5 millions...

I figure $3-4m. When the icon and the artifact line up just right things move exponentially-that’s how you you get a $17million wristwatch. https://sharpmagazine.com/2018/01/08...tch-ever-sold/

With the threat of war seeming to be ramping up quickly I wonder if people that would be bidding on these cars will wait and see how things shake out.

I agree but they won’t let this one slip away.

Don't think there will be a war,if there is it will be a quick cleansing process that will ultimately oust Iran's Mullah's during T's second term IMO. Liquid folks aren't shaken by these geo deals..especially if it goes to Japan or UAE. That is the quintessential star car paired with the coolest cat Hollywood ever produced arguably.. folks have been chasing this car for decades.

Does the son of the Dad who bought in the 1970's still own it,or did FORD buy it from him recently?

Purchased by Robert Kiernan of Madison, New Jersey in 1974 from Marranca. Bequeathed to Kiernan's son Sean in 2014 upon Robert's passing

Thanks Lee.

Sold for 3.4 mil ...

3.74 with commissions.

I wonder who bought it?
Will be interesting to see if it ends up in a Museum or a private collection.

My gut says Frank Mecum owns it!

Why would you think Frank bought it?

Dave

I'm with you on that one.

You're wrong, trust me on this.

Frank is the name of the Bidders Asst.,(Not the Name of the Buyer),who helped get that Bid.The Hammer mentions the name of each Bidders Asst. at the end of most sales,to help the paperwork people get the buyers signature.
In this case,Danas son,Frank Mecum. https://journal.classiccars.com/2019...auction-block/
