Reggie sure did. Its funny how the so called "historic" cars linger on the block while others get hammered as soon as they go cold.

What the f*** was that??? Stopping the hammer ?? Reggie bidding on the green ZL-1? And then retracting his 300k bid...Does he know what the car is?? Didn't he used to own the car? am I confused??


I really don't think the buyer has a clue of the history of this car... https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/dunno.gif

Ill have to rewind the dvr but I thought the car was Reggies to sell???

Re: Barrett Jackson COPO Camaro
 

B-J makes roughly 20% off of the selling price, so there is a lot of incentive to see big numbers, especially on cars well into 6 figures. That should explain some of the action.

Re: Barrett Jackson COPO Camaro
 

What's with that blond headed wood pecker looking idiot that bids but never buys?

Re: Barrett Jackson COPO Camaro
 

If that was Chuck's old car, it will be interesting to see if the new buyer knows about the history on it. $290 for a ZL1 should tell you something as a bidder.

Re: Barrett Jackson COPO Camaro
 

I feel sorry for the buyer. He looked so proud and I don't think he has a clue... He got sucked in by the rhetoric on the stage... https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/frown.gif

correct me if I am wrong....I thought the green ZL-1 was Holub's car but was owned by Reggie in the past...is that right???

Re: Barrett Jackson COPO Camaro
 

I saw Reggie up on the upper stage next to Craig Jackson so I figured it was his. Duped me!

That was horse$hit. Reggie and Gary caught on tape bidding up his car.

Pratte wanted nothing to do with that car and was doing the best he could to hide but Steve was drapped over his shoulder doing his best to get him to bid.

Someone already said it...that was embarrassing to watch.

Re: Barrett Jackson COPO Camaro
 

I was totally embarrassed watching that ZL1 auction. I know some of you love this Craig Jackson guy but I have always thought of him as a shiesty crooked car salesman. Believe me I know these guys when I see them. Having spent 10 years in a car dealership I know the type. He kept saying "this car has great history!" I laughed out loud when I heard that. The announcers were saying this is the buy of the auction and welcome to 2009 when a ZL1 only brings in the $200's, not knowing the bad stigma this car has. I bet Craig put his foot in his big mouth because he was probably telling Holub "yeah, don't worry, the car will bring a million!" as he stood there in his plaid suit coat and shiny pinky ring.

he got his fifteen...really about 6...minutes of fame on TV..!! it seemed like the buyer jumped into the bidding at the end...I wonder if he just figured it must be such a great deal because the auctioneers were saying so.....ayayay.....

Re: Barrett Jackson COPO Camaro
 

man, i wish reggie would have won the auction....

Re: Barrett Jackson COPO Camaro
 

IMO, the buy of the lot was the P/L racecar, but the timing on the stage could not have been worse, following three redodies, all offered by the same seller.

The selling of the ZL-1 was a joke.

Why the COPO connection/ Cunneen would ever give the car his seal of approval based on the VIN TAG only will always baffle me ???

[/ QUOTE ]

Hmmm....does seem strange.

Re: Barrett Jackson COPO Camaro
 

I believe I heard that Ed Cunneen revoked and disclaimed all certifications. He is no longer involved in certifications.

Re: Barrett Jackson COPO Camaro
 

Jackson (Craig) and Stevie Wonder seem to be a matched pair.

Re: Barrett Jackson COPO Camaro
 

It makes you wonder if 3 cars are rebodies then how many other makes are rebodied also.

Re: Barrett Jackson COPO Camaro
 

From the time it hit the block to the hammer dropping was 9 minutes.

Re: Barrett Jackson COPO Camaro
 

I never post on here but had to on this, that car was dead in the water at 2 min. I have never seen a car get "puffed" like that ever on Barrett Jackson. I miss the Barrett Jackson I remember as a kid which was on PBS on Saturday for 2 hours, circa 1993. I remember a local story, Seattle area, of a ZL-1 getting totaled in a street race back in the late 1970's. Why did the car get parted out?, I once had a conversation with Reggie about camaro's back in the late 90's and he told me he only buy's cars with "all the tissue", I can't see him getting his name tied to a fake car

Re: Barrett Jackson COPO Camaro
 

Chuck Sharin-

If you read this, please check your private messages. Tony Begley and I want to talk to you as soon as possible concerning this car. Something needs to be done about this.

Green ZL1 sold for 290k? Took lots of block time to get it there.. I saw Reggie bidding on it, but it looks like someone else won..Anyone know the winner?

he wasn't bidding on it....it was his car Made me sick to watch Craig Jackson practically down on his hands and knees begging people to bid! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...thumbsdown.gif

Re: Barrett Jackson COPO Camaro
 

Did the Preston & Lawrence Yenko do $270K? Nice oem paint car but not much in successful race history, national event wins, or world championship titles.

Nice oem paint car? https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...s/confused.gif Not a lot of wins but still a cool car though.

Re: Barrett Jackson COPO Camaro
 

Did Gary's silver Deuce and Green Yenko Camaro cross the block? If so, what did they bid to?

Mike

Re: Barrett Jackson COPO Camaro

Re: Barrett Jackson COPO Camaro

Re: Barrett Jackson COPO Camaro
 

Someone *please* tell me they Tivo'd the ZL-1 going across the block and that they're gonna put it up on Youtube?! Do it for us guys without SpeedVision...!

Re: Barrett Jackson COPO Camaro
 

Ive got it on my DVR.

Re: Barrett Jackson COPO Camaro
 

Sweet...any chance of you getting it onto the net?

Re: Barrett Jackson COPO Camaro
 

Havent a clue how to do it.

Tell me the last time you saw Reggie bid to win a car @ auction...?

I've never even seen him bid before tonight... https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/dunno.gif

I'll be home tomorrow, if Tony wants to call after 11AM Pacific time..........my home # is 425-277-8833

BigBlockKid, That's the wildest story I ever heard about my old Alan Green #27 ZL-1. Dick Tutino(1st owner/ser mgr at Alan Green) may have driven car on street when first delivered as ODO had 50 miles on it when I owned it (after speedo cable and most of wiring harness was gutted). Car also could have collected ODO miles while at Gibb Chev ??????

Car was strickly a race car from almost day 1............

I still have original sway bar, heater plenum, back seat....

Re: Barrett Jackson COPO Camaro
 

Speed Commentator comments really got me....

"A rebody is kind of like George Washington's AX, it just got another handle-but is it still Geroge Washington's AX??"

"I remember several years ago when a ZL-1 would bring over 1 Million dollars- Welcome to 2009"

My fear is that the Hobby has reached a new low with the value reputation for ZL-1 and Yenko Nova's now injured through the sale of these cars and the remarks by the speed commentators. Not Good.

This one hit me pretty hard as well. They (Mike Joy) made a big deal about where a stripe on a trunk lid ended, but then made the comment above. Doesn't make sense to me. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/dunno.gif
