Default Early Mecum Indy consignments

I was just looking at mecum.com to see what some of the early consignments were for the spring classic and am amazed at some of the early consignments. Here are some of my favorites. Now to win the lottery!http://www.mecum.com/auctions/lot_de...=SC0512-126517 http://www.mecum.com/auctions/lot_de...=SC0512-126571

Tom, your right, I do love the L88 ragtops. The one being offered is probably the best restored convertible in the world in my opinion. I also love the 67 Yenko with the side pipes!

Up for auction is my 1969 Nova L78, 400 Turbo with orgianl drive train, it scored 999 at Vettefest, won the Gold Spinner, and Diamond award. Its regisitered at Mecum Indy, its going to be on sale Friday night, do not currently have the time yet. It is Dover white with blue interior, column shift. I have been told that it is probaly one of the nicest one in the United States. Restoration was done by Roberts Auto Body &amp; Super Car Workshop.

I like the red L88 coupes with the original motor,
and the red/red 71 LS6 convertibles with M22 With the original motors also, I think they only built one on 71 like that
