Thursday at Mecum Auction Glendale, AZ 2025
 
Spent 1/2 day at Mecum on Thursday and shot about 151 more cars. I walked through the tents I missed on Wednesday, walked around the Bid Goes On area, covered the rest of the mezzanine, and a few on the floor and in the staging lanes. I had to leave early because of a prior commitment in the evening.

I did not go back today. Was up late last night because of a family thing. After sleeping until 12:30 PM today, all is fine.

These are in order as I shot them.

I was going to drive a black ‘56 Eldorado, but I was in no shape this morning to drive anything.

I just keep my eyes open and walk around instead of sitting down.

Great pictures Rick!! Thank you so much for posting them!!

dykstra 03-22-2025 01:12 PM

Thanks again Rick! Pics are great!

Lynn 03-22-2025 03:15 PM

Great pics and some interesting cars.

I had to do a double take on the silver 69 Camaro race car.

Not sure why the builder bastardized the rear quarters (well, I KNOW why, I just to understand it) so badly on this.

Completely chit the bed on this one. Way to ruin some nice factory lines.

I just had to take a closer look at that 69 Trans Am with the sunroof. Looks like it was dealer installed. I wonder if that is the only one made that way? I have to say the install really looked good as if it was done at the factory.

I even met up with Chip Foose and had my picture taken with him. :)

muscle_collector 03-23-2025 04:33 PM

thats cool. definately one i havent heard of before.

markinnaples 03-24-2025 02:54 PM

Thanks so much for all of the pictures!

Was that a dent in that 69 TA in the front fender? Or the light hitting it

I’m all for keeping the cars story intact but w paint less dent removal today I think I’d be pulling that dent at least �� but that is just me.

In the 80s when I was 15 I looked at a 69 TA a (Canuck) sheet rocker had in my neighborhood ( we were builders) i had my own money from raking rocks and sweeping floors but needed some of dads cash to finish the deal

I really wanted the car but I was 15 and my dad said it wouldn’t be worth anything because it had a sunroof in it. ( car was otherwise MINT) I remember The guy said it was a RaIV. But I was 15 I didn’t even know what that was at the time. Guy wanted 3500 for the car. I ended up buying a white w red interior 350 convertible that was pretty nice but never forgot that TA. Always wondered where it ended up.

I don’t think this was the car but always kicked myself for not buying it. Of course I ended up with a RAIV anyway
Just a few years later.

I asked around for years no one remembered a RAIv w a sun roof so maybe I heard it wrong maybe the guy was mis representing it, or something or maybe that IV car just had its roof reskinned quietly. Idk probably never will pretty sure the guys name that owned it was Bernie in Bristol Ct in case anyone is familiar w the car :-)

I’m
Not real familiar with the survivor car type status but I’m curious if the pointless dent removal matters. It went in there what’s wrong w taking it out as long as it’s not repainted?

"Low 8's".

How about a different approach to low 8's:
