Don't know if I missed it on another thread, but do you have the status of the 914's that were there?

Not sure of the 914's, but an RS america sold for 90K and the bird board people are up in arms cause a Chevelle and Hemi Cuda both sold for $300K!!!!

B-J is not a place to sell a Porsche, they are the wrong crowd. They want to see 57 Bel Air's and Hemi anything right now. I watched a lot of it, and I just shake my head.

Now the guy that bought the $3M Olds has to pay an additional $240K in fees. That is like buying a few extra Hemi's. BTW the 911 engine is or at least was a Hemi.

So why was the guy who bought the Olds in tears???? Because now he has to come up with 3,240,000 dollars. What the early Vette should have been. IPB Image

Mike I did see the 914s roll trough. I spoke at length to the buyer of the race car, He paid $4600 and is happy with it. Nice guy he just did not know anything about the car.
The custom 914 that sold for $14000 was a very well thought out absract piece of automotive art. Best I can say.
Not sure what the buyer saw in this car. More than I would spend.
BJ was a fun event and I got to see and also speak to alot of the people they showed on TV. Very crowded and alot of things to see and do if you are not a bidder or seller.
I would like to go again next year as a seller of 2 914s a big block Corvette and a Mustang convertible. We will see.
