Mecum Indy

[GrumpyJeff]

Just wondering what everybodys thoughts were on this years Sale ? Percentage of cars Sold looked to be very high ?, even though the Crowds obviously were way light.

Overall I was surprised how high so many vehicles actually sold for,being what the world is today.
I heard the hammer say "sold on the internet" quite a lot,and rightly so I guess,as many weren't there in person.I still wouldn't bid on any vehicle w/o seeing it in person,so that's interesting that so many did.

Many reserves not met,but when you see where the bidding was for those "Bid Goes On" vehicles,may be that was for the best.

Lot of Cool Shelby's, Vette's etc... there but that El Camino was probably the One car there that I would truly LUST for in my personal garage

Does anyone know the sold or bid to price on the 2 1970 L78 Camaros?
The website says sold but shows no price. So I am guessing they sold after auctions end?
