Mecum auction - Your favorites!

[John]

What was your favorite cars that were at this years auction at Indy?
Were there any surprises?...any Deals?

The '63 Z06 that was bid to $300,000.00, but didn't sell. My favorite and my biggest surprise.

I may be biased, but the Bright Green 69 COPO Camaro from Nickey is still one of my favorites.

That and the B5 Blue 4-speed 440+6 Roadrunner Convertible.

And the...and the...

I have always been a fan of the Cobra, so needless to say the Cobra display was number one on my list. Cool to see Colin in the thick of things, including the Coupe.

Others include, Mike Gs Pontiacs and the three #1 '69 Camaros (ZL-1, Yenko and COPO).

I was surprised with the lack of interest in the big block Buicks on this weekend anyway. A couple of '70 Stage 1's (couple and convertible) and a '70 GSX. I think the GSX bid to low 60's and the others didn't reach that level.

No big surprise but I thought D. Mecum's Chevelles did well. I see he eventually sold his LS6 Convertible. Looks like the low mile LS6 couple was the only one to go back home with him.

How about a '70 Judge for $36,500, seems like one of the better buys.

Low mile sold also.Have not heard a price yet.

I heard that Don Stowers newly restored LS-6 brought big money ??????
Any observations on this one??

Any note worthy 2nd gen Camaros ????

The #1 ZL-1 only bid to 600k??? That is a surprise to me. ....what did the Cobra end up bidding to?? Did it sell?? just curious...

Don's Chevelle did do quite well especially considering what the other LS6's were bringing. Just goes to show what an impecable restoration and sales description can do besides the fact that its rarely seen and appealing color combination did not hurt. Congrats Don though sorry to see it leave the area.

Congrats to Don and Judi with a sale of 118k for their LS6 Chevelle.

I was told I drove it further than Don, which was from the outside tent to the block! Car had 5.9 miles on the odometer when it sold and it was indeed a sight to see. The workmanship was outstanding, truly like stepping back in time.

And the new owner drove it home to Fort Wayne, (literally)...NOT in a trailer!
