I'm curious as to what members think the above car is worth ? It sold for 300K ?

Mucho Dinero for a Pro Street Cuda. I think he should be pleased.

I know the attorneys are...lots of billable hours. $20k just to get your attorney up to speed on the collector market.

I'm curious as to the Motive behind the Seller......was he one of the people that thought by bringing a car to the Auction that he was "Guaranteed" a nice profit and had a number in his head and anything below that he was getting Screwed by B-J????? Sounds like a "Spoiled Brat" that didn't get his way........"Everyone" knows the rules going in......."NO RESERVE"......Maybe the guy is a Lawyer so he thinks the rules are for everyone else other than him........
I'm sure there were a lot of "Sellers" who were very dis-satisfied with the pricing, But........they understood the rules...........Look at Oehlers Nova....
In my opinion from the facts as they are stated, the Seller is being very Disruptive and completely out of line
I think he got a "Fair" price for the car......just my $.02

Actually the seller, David Clabuesch, are you ready for this .........is a Judge. Yeah that's right, he's a Judge in Huron County Probate Court.

Here's a link to the full story: http://www.azcentral.com/news/articl...rrett0317.html

There's also a video on that link that show the chains and you hear from the seller.

This is going to get very interesting.......

------Even the most naive B/J seller knows that although not without its own set of problems, one can and many do buy thier own car back. Its ludicrous to think that this seller knew he was getting that much less than he wanted and he simply did nothing but go out and buy chains and padlocks after the fact. Im a poster boy for not getting what I want at auctions and this solution never occured to me.
------As good a question as what we think the car was worth is what did the owner think it was worth to take such a rash action that was bound to have repercussions??? Probably expensive repercussions!!!.........Bill S

------The post above answers my question yet begs another. That the judge had a rough figure in mind I can understand. But now we find out that he made a profit,,,just not enough to satisfy his greed. The actions he took are even stranger under this set of parameters. I really dont see B/J quick-gavelling a car with this history. I didnt see this car go off but the auctioneers must have felt it was all done. As they stated they would have been shorting themselves in the process........Bill S,,,,again!

Re: Barrett-Jackson Lawsuit
 

From what I read, he made 75 grand in profit on the car. I wish I could make that kind of cash on ANYTHING!! If it were me, I would be very happy with a profit like that.

Re: Barrett-Jackson Lawsuit
 

I would like to hear the History and Pedigree of that car !
Didnt they rep the car as a REAL ????? If its not real,300K was ALL the money ! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...s/confused.gif

Cant believe he cashed the check !!
