Default Re: Barrett-Jackson Records Strong Sales

The Hemi E-body's at Russo did pretty well I thought. One sold(Cage car)sold for 400K and 71 Hemi Challenger $350K
The BJ Blue 70 Hemi Cuda did 190K+(not a nice car) and the Yellow terd with non original drivetrain and auto on the column did 120K..
Pedigree cars are doing well in my book but any flaws and people dont even want to talk about it for any money.
I get a lot of calls from guys sitting on there couch watching, you need to see these cars first hand and you would understand why some of these cars bring what they brought in price. Like John said: No killer cars to say,we must see this go off the block !!
The ZL1 brought killer money as did his Yenko's. I told him his Yellow Yenko was going to be a homerun.
Big thing I noticed,they didnt do ALL the hoopla between the cars during prime time.. I think they learned that was a BIG mistake in the past few years..
The market took a big hit that weekend from the Beatles memorabilia.. Look at the #'s before that,you will notice the #'s were great from Tues-Sat afternoon and then the mudslide after at that !!!

Just my 5cents !!!
