Go figure.

I've seen guys re-popping the GM part # and the snowflake on the X-rams and I gotta tell ya:

They're getting real good at it.

Heard through the "grapevine" that a red 69 SS 350 Nova went for around $41k. Now I know it's not as many zeros as the other mega dollar units. But,it is pretty interesting for a small block Nova. Were there any BB Novas other than the Yenko discussed? Sounds like this was quite an event. I'll have to go to one sometime.....

If you go to the Mecum Website and sign up you can review the results of all their auctions. Generally it takes them 5-7 days to post the results of the most recent auction.

It's a freebie to sign up.

I don't know him but I also watched him spend 400K plus on a 71 Hemi Cuda at the RM auction in Monterey.

Not a bad buy, considering the one that went for 860K this past weekend. And a green one to say the least. Patrick

Here's the Mecum email that just arrived.....

Highlights of the weekend include the five-car Yenko collection selling for $1,785,000; the 1969 ZL1 Camaro for $840,000; and a 1971 Hemi Cuda for $840,000. If you weren’t there, you missed the biggest and best muscle car auction ever! And if you were, thanks for helping make it the success it was. Complete results will be on our web site in the next day or two.

We now turn our sights on the KC Dream Classic December 2-4 in Kansas City, MO. This three-day sale has become one of our top auctions of the year. It is the best place to makes changes in your inventory, whether it’s one car or a dozen. 2005 continues to be both a buyer’s and seller’s market, with solid prices and a great selection of cars.

Its been almost 10 years since I did the Z-11 Impala and that Rally Green Y Nova for Dick B. The Impala I seen a year or 2 ago when it changed hands and it still looked super. Havent seen the Nova since I left down south. Amazing what these cars keep bringing.
