Christenholz Liquidating?
 

Just got a Mecum flyer for Dave Christenholz's entire collection. First the SuperSnake and now this?

Time to sell? Charley?

Re: Christenholz Liquidating?
 

Yes it will all be sold....

Re: Christenholz Liquidating?
 

...DARN IT (yes all caps!) you guys...can't you wait until I make my millions before you start selling all this great stuff...if Dave sells all his stuff, won't that flood the market?...

Re: Christenholz Liquidating?
 

Man you are hot on the novas! Are they up and coming or something? Replacing the camaros? https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/cool.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif

Re: Christenholz Liquidating?
 

Any idea why the whole collection is going? I hope it's nothing serious.

Re: Christenholz Liquidating?
 

This will be a "preview" of the cars (21) that will be auctioned at the Spring Mecum. Open house will be from 8 to 11 on Sat/Sun 19/20 Jan. Dave's facility is neat, cars are awesome. Recommend the visit if you get the opportunity. It is not far from West World or Russo & Steele, etc.

Is that in Scottsdale next week? If so, do you have more details or an address? How do I look it up?

Re: Christenholz Liquidating?
 

Mecum in the Morning!
If you're going to the Scottsdale auctions why not stop in for breakfast with the Mecum folks and take a look at a world class Muscle Car collection scheduled to be offered at a Mecum auction this coming Spring?
A continental breakfast will be served along with a heaping helping of American Muscle Car the mornings of Saturday, January 19th and Sunday, January 20th at the Scottsdale Airpark in Scottsdale.

Easy to find.
The preview is being held at the Scottsdale Airpark, at 16087 n. 80th Street, Scottsdale, AZ 85260

Directions are: Frank Lloyd Wright Blvd to Greenway-Hayden Loop, Go South. Turn East (left) on Paradise Lane. Go to gray OPACS building.

Re: Christenholz Liquidating?
 

A) 21 cars does not flood the market. B) I'll be there with my bidders pass as I truly believe in this market cream rises to the top !

-----Yah Rick,,,I didnt know where Bob Fullers car had gotten to. I saw this car way back in the late 70s when doing a little trading with Bob on another vehicle. He said he would never sell but we all know how that goes. When others talk about thier restored LS6 droptops I always think of this black piece of art as the benchmark........Bill S

Re: Christenholz Liquidating?
 

I thought Gary E. would never ever sell it either.
Stunned when he did & for how much..
Dave brought it to SCR9 to do a lil..https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/burnout.gif

Re: Christenholz Liquidating?
 

Will the 70 Chevelle experts agree that this is probably the best LS6 convert out there ? As in low mile non restored, known forever ? This is the first one I had ever seen pics of.

Re: Christenholz Liquidating?
 

Has my vote.
Very little has been done to it since I first saw it in 1987.
..and I'll go a step further and say I would like to own it today.

Re: Christenholz Liquidating?
 

I talked with Bob at SC Indy around 1985. I had seen the car in a magazine earlier and asked him about the statement they published regarding the "Special Order Bumper Pad". He just laughed and said he had a local sign painter apply that to the bumper because he liked it. (Hand painted; you can still see the brush strokes.) If I recall correctly he also had it done to a Red Coupe he owned.
It was a real treat to see it again at the Reunion. Yep, one of the Best, if not THE Best one around. (But then I might be a bit partial to the color and option combo. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/wink.gif)

Charley, why don't YOU buy it and I'LL store it for you right next to a Black Coupe. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/blush.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/naughty.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/crazy.gif

Dave's car is certainly very nice and well known, however, I think there are a number of special LS-6 converts around. My old car was also a triple black M-22, born with engine, trans, rear, earliest known, and perhaps the 1st LS-6 convert built (12C). Formerly part of Dana Mecum's personal collection and known ownership history to day one. It too made a few passes at SCR.

Re: Christenholz Liquidating?
 

It's awesome that Dave is allowing the new owners of his cars to come from the public. Often all these great cars pass around to a handful of people. This will allow the average " not in the click " person to have a chance. Awesome.
Looking forward to seeing his cars again next week. Sign me up Charley.

You are correct on the red coupe it resides in Anchorage Alaska, the guy has had it since 1984.

Re: Christenholz Liquidating?
 

Could somebody post a list of the cars or a link they've found? Is this the same fellow who bought Jim (NWYENKO)'s Blue '69 SYC Camaro?

Re: Christenholz Liquidating?
 

yes but Jim's old Yenko is with another member in Nevada. There should be pics on this site of most of the cars...Xplantded posted some somewhere.
