$600,000 for the 1st of the 2007 Shelby 500s! wow!
weird one. since it was for charity, do you think the buyer gets to deduct the dif between retail and what they paid? farrari hat was schilling? didn't they say one of the first off the line?
k
they said "First PUBLIC" sale...so, I bet Carrol, the factory, museuem, etc...get one first.

I dont get it.. I must be missing something...
I just dont get the hoopla that surrounds Barret-Jackson at all!!
I dont understand why it gets time on TV (they pay Im sure)
Fools and their money etc..
Then again I dont understand much..
rich stupid people. paying stupid prices. five years from now they'lle be sitting there looking at there over priced muscle car that they can't get even half what they paid for it trying to come up with the cash to pay for the laser tattoo removal of that trendy tattoo they got when tattoo's were cool.

only tv ive watched in months......
lots of the same tho.

Barrett-Jackson is not just the auction. It is venders setup sellin gthere wares. And lots of really kewl looking cars, and a lot of people watching.
Also BJ is not the only auction in town, just the biggest.
One thing about tonight is that alot of the big hitters from last year were not there this year. Ferrari hat was there but also a few new guys with lots of money to pay really big prices.
The best value of the night, the 1967 black GT 40 for $350,000.

What kills me is seeing some stupid Chevelle go for more than a Vette or a Mustang - it's just a family sedan, makes me sick seeing an automatic turd go for 100K it's just wrong. Of course if I had a 4000lb. automatic turd I wanted to sell at 100X value...
for those old enough to remember...during the gas crisis of 73' all those guzzlers were'nt worth squat. those toyotas and datsuns were the hot ticket and hondas were just a blip on the horizon. sorry, backarudas (another senior thing. remember the stan freeberg commercials?) and others of the era had the worst build quality and really didn't handle worth a shit. i flipped back to speed just in time to see the futureliner go. that was the best of the whole coverage. did the concept car with the plastic domes hit the block last night? if so, what did go for? wish i could get some bias ply wiiiide oval Tiger Paws for my 914 .

Kevin, it went for 2.8 and didn't generate near the excitement the Futureliner did. I love that thing!
i would've rather had the bat mobile. who got it? the sceemer in the red hat?
