Is the link to that auction. It's on Aug 12.
Some interesting cars in it but they will all be well out of my price range.

Pfd with list of cars if this doesn't work it's in the link above. http://www.auctionzip.com/cgi-bin/showimage.cgi?lid=2736274&type=at&in=1

 

Some of those cars from the '70s aren't worth much but there are still a lot of nice older ones available like this '53 Corvette-one of only 300 made. It has a folder full of receipts including one that shows that the doctor bought it in 1967 for $895. What's it worth now-half a mill?

 

That was one hokey stupid American Pickers style video, acting like they were opening doors to barn for the first time. Give me a break.
The guy said there were four or five hundred '53 Corvettes made (more like 300). He called a '38 Ford convertible sedan a phaeton, he said the '49 Olds was the first muscle car, referred to a '42 Chevy as a "Super Deluxe" and said the '70 442 had a shaker hood. There's more, but you get the idea.

 

There are some nice cars in the pics on the auction site. but a lot of not so nice also. A lot of cars that look like cars saved by a car guy in the '70's - 80's with the thoughts that they would be worth money. Put away and never driven again. Some will hit a home run, some will not cover the storage fee. I know he didn't pay storage, but he would have made more money if he got paid to store cars.

 

Just watched a little of that without audio, hate to judge by the cover but he acts like a pile......
So i turned it off.

 

There is another thread i started with videos. The first video shows how cars were as found. Second one some of the older ones as they are being set up for the auction.

 

i'm going.

 

I haven't the funds available to consider the trip, but I would like to know how things go if anyone attends! Joe

 

Is there a 10% buyers premium added to everything? Where is all the fine print BS?

 

there is nothing yet on the auctioneers website, just pictures. i'll bet it will be a mini Lambrecht auction. i'd like to snag an 49-50 Olds Convert. but, I don't think it will happen. i'll probably just end up with a couple hotdogs and a coke.

 

Wow thats great
