Re: Barrett-Jackson
REDZ and Kevin, I did not see the T-bird go across but for that kind of money it would have had to been nicer than the one Milt had a few years ago. That was probably the nicest restored T-bird I had ever seen. They were meticulous with the details and fitment of that car. I am talking early Rolls & Duesenberg type fit of the doors, trunk, and hood, all of the gaps were exactly the same. How many cars can you close the doors or trunk and completely latch them with a finger? Not many. They even went as far to align the plaid pattern for the trunk mat to the side pieces and tire cover. Of all the cars Milt had, that was the nicest restored one there. If that car at BJ was a comparable car then I can see the price being that high. What color was that car? Was it a rare color that made the price go up?
The T/A Challenger really surprised me but the color is what sold it. Out of 2400 T/A's made only 7 were Panther Pink according to Galen. That makes the car even rarer than it just being a 4spd....................RatPack...................
