Attend Barrett Jackson?
Anyone here attend the auction?
I watched on TV and thought the 1969 L88 Corvette seemed way under the $ at $300,000! The under bidder was Craig Jackson and I was surprised he didn't bid more? The 69 ZL1 Camaro seemed to bring strong $ at $995,000! Dave |

I've been twice before, but not this year. Most like WILL be there next year as a buddy has it on his bucket list. I told him to get his banking info in order to buy something LOL. I will supply lodgings and he supplies the rentals for our time.
I didn't really watch too much as it was on Tv with my packages. So did watch on the computer. But wasn't overly impressed with the selections. A lot of newer stuff and european brands, or more then what Mecum had a few weeks earlier. I did notice some of the pricing just to sorta "gauge" the market and would have been a player on a few I think. I did notice the 10 1969 Z28's. Pricing for the most I would say was weaker than expected. Couple in the high 40's? And yes there was the high $$$ blue '69. But seems most were not as much as I was seeing in the past. |
I was shocked by the $ some of the BMW M3's previously owned by Paul Walker were bringing!
I guess this is just the beginning of the possible shift in cars of choice in the collector car hobby? Dave |

the high dollar blue one blew me away...lt looked like a mail order Z. had prior JM cert. but no where on the paper work shown did it say rallysport. and no pictures shown prior to restoration. car came out of Michigan. I did hear the seller say it had full floors replaced and looked to be new quarters as well. nice color combo which probably carried the bidding high along with the cross ram |
We go every year and never disappointed.
The Blue Z was a rusty project but original drivetrain which helped the sale. No proof it was a real RS. There was a nicely restored orange 69 RS Z that grabbed $101k and several non RS 69 Z's that were in the $70-$85k range. I did see a few that were in the $50k range. I believe it was said most of these did not have their original drivetrains intact and from what I saw had some restoration mistakes, but nice cars for the most part. About what I would have expected them to sell for. Overall a pretty good showing with nearly 2,000 cars. Always a good time. |
