It was a great day. Felt more like a mini Barrett-Jackson with the all new tents. I know....there`s only one BJ Auction.

Feel free to add in the actual sales of the cars I was unsure about.

Dan.

[Charley Lillard]

The 68 Yenko sold for 350K or near that. I don't think the other Yenko's sold. DragonSnake Cobra brought over 1 mil.

[Dave Rifkin]

Those are some beautiful cars; I wonder why so many didn't sell. Has the market slowed down or are the prices getting too high for even the big money collectors?

[MosportGreen66]

Thank you for the pictures... seems like a bunch of high-quality cars!

[Don_Lightfoot]

Great pictures Dan. Keep 'em coming if you have more http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif

No results available on the Mecum website yet.

When looking at the $275K for the 69 Velle L89 ragger, maybe that one on Ebay recently needing full restoration might not have been a bad deal at about $80K http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/dunno.gif

When they do get the results on the website I sure hope they include the "bid to" price for the ones not selling.

[bashton]

Great shots, Dan and it was a pleasure getting to talk with you again.

It was a GREAT day and I have to Thank Steve B. and Jay R. for allowing me the pleasure of driving several of the Nickey/Chicago cars across the block. I'm still sportin' wood!

I will give you some of the prices, as I took a few notes and being the sick M-F I am...have an uncanny memory for "useless" information!

I also managed to shoot close to 400 pictures, so if anyone is looking for anything, let me know!

What was included in this lot? Any pics? Sounds interesting...

[kwhizz]

What about Oehler's Red Gibb Nova......anyone see what what happened.??

Ken

[lzdick]

The ZL-1 lot included three (3) engines. Two were complete, carb to pan, and the third was a bare block. As i recall, one complete block was one out of a car (can't remember car number) and the other described as a Yenko ZL-1 engine. The third was the current production block (bare). Bid to $50,000...reserve near $100,000.

What is the story on Yenko ZL-1 engines? I remember seeing a red '69 Camaro on eBay (and discussed here) with what they described as a Yenko ZL-1. Are these the blocks with "YENKO" cast into the front of the block? Would love to learn more about these engines.

Rich,

Yenko took up where Chevy left off with the ZL-1 engine program, sometime in the mid-70s. The Yenko ZL-1 program was ran out of the old building at Canonsburg, (Yenko Chevrolet had moved to Mc Murray) with Bill “Smithy” Smith in charge.

I have seen two types of Yenko imprints on their engines, the word Yenko or the Yenko crest. The blocks came two ways, either with or without water passages. From what I was told most, were installed in stock cars or boats, with a few NOS old ones still floating around. Ken Barnhart just recently installed one in his ZL-1 Camaro.

I have never seen documentation of a Yenko ZL-1 block being installed in an automobile by Yenko.

[CT Mark]

There was a red 66 Chevelle SS with black interior in this auction that I'm familiar with. Does anyone know what it sold for? I think it went across the block Fri nite.

Thanks.

[Stefano]

The reason many cars didn't sell is because this is mainly a reserve auction. Most of the cars have a set reserve.

Many of the car owners were expecting a record sale price for each and everyone of their vehicles.

Many record selling prices were set and many by dealers who expect to be reselling the cars at a profit.

It was one of the best gatherings of Vintage Muscle I have ever experienced.

The Drag'in Snake Sold for appox $1.5mm or so

A Mr Norm's Super Stock '64 Hemi sold at $350,000 or so.

Silver Cross Ram Z28 $150,000.00 or so.

We sold a few cars as well as many of the bikes.

Many thanks to all who helped out and stopped by to visit,especially Bob Ashton who naively volunteered to get in the cars on a 90 degree and 100% humidity day and drive them across the block for us http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/3gears.gif

Guess the red one needing the total resto for a Buy it now@110k was relatively cheap... huh?

[NWYENKO]

How much was the buyer's commission? Jim

[Mr70]

Sellers pay 6% commission ontop of final selling price.
Buyers commission fees for Mecum/Rockford May 2006 were:
<u>Final Vehicle price</u>..........<u>Buyer pays an extra</u>
$0 to $5,499.00.......................$300.00
$5,500 to $9,999.00.................$500.00
$10,000.00 and up...................5%
Vehicles 5 years old &amp; Newer......3%
NON Automoblies lots................10%

[mockingbird812]

Those are a darn sight better than the biggies out here in AZ. 8-10% for seller - usually ends up being 8%, then 8% for buyer.

[MYSTERYCHEVELLE]

Not sure if you are talking about Red with Black interior 66 SS or the RED with RED bench seat 4 speed 66 SS?? I am wanting to know what the RED/RED 66 SS took and pics.. I know this car VERY WELL!! http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/scholar.gif

Last I saw,John O.'s Red 68 Gibb Nova was bid to 235K,with a No Sale.
He literally ran out of gas and needed to push it on stage..
He got 340K for the his meticulously restored 69 RG Yenko Camaro.
The three ZL-1 engines could have been bought for 75K.
Reggie J. was interested,but wanted to talk to the man who assembled them first for exact internal details.
Monday brought some phenominal deals!

So, the RG sells for 340K &amp; buyer pays 5% (17,000) he actually pays $357K. Seller pays 6% (20,400) and nets $319,600. Mecum makes $37,400 http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif

[Belair62]

For selling the car http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif

[Charley Lillard]

Mecum was paid the money for bringing the buyer and seller together. He had to spend a ton on ads, the venue, employees etc. Selling a car is not that easy.

[Mr70]

Not siding with anyone,but Danas' tent rental fee for this event alone had to be more then most make here in a year.
Excluding Belair if you're commutin to Deerfield. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

[ssl78]

I thought the RG Yenko got bid to 350 and was a no sale reserve wass 400. Maybe it sold after the auction

[hvychev]

Wow, absolutely freakin ironic! The little ole red Deuce brings more money than "Motion" Camaro's and "Harrell" Novas. Boy oh boy, just think, the car could have been had 2 years ago for only $50G. I think seeing that made my week. And to think "the car is nice but not that nice" and it don't have the original motor" and "run them Deuce values up fellas!", "it's just a small block", and my favorite, "the Antiques road show Deuce." The seller is laughing all the way to the bank!! http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Oh yeah one more totally ironic thing. Both buyers on my car were BOTH "outsiders." No one from any known website ponied up for it. Interesting. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/scholar.gif

The reason many cars didn't sell is because this is mainly a reserve auction. Most of the cars have a set reserve.

Many of the car owners were expecting a record sale price for each and everyone of their vehicles.

Many record selling prices were set and many by dealers who expect to be reselling the cars at a profit.

It was one of the best gatherings of Vintage Muscle I have ever experienced.

The Drag'in Snake Sold for appox $1.5mm or so

A Mr Norm's Super Stock '64 Hemi sold at $350,000 or so.

Silver Cross Ram Z28 $150,000.00 or so.

We sold a few cars as well as many of the bikes.

Many thanks to all who helped out and stopped by to visit,especially Bob Ashton who naively volunteered to get in the cars on a 90 degree and 100% humidity day and drive them across the block for us http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/3gears.gif

[/ QUOTE ] Darren, how many of the Zs there were 'real' and/ or 'correct'? We were there Friday and I'm sure I saw at least 2 fake tags. The one in this pic is an X77, check out the X33 trim!
