Re: News from the Auction front.
Reggie News--His '70 YENKO NOVA went for either $47,000 or $48,000 (the paint was bad and it had bucket seats). When he got BOO'D because of the ZL-1 reserve of $330,000 he said it didn't bother him because he's been boo'd before!! Gary Holub went up to him and asked him what his reserve was and when he said $330,000 Gary just walked away. Reggie was NOT too happy and he just didn't seem to care. More news the Boss 429 (The LAWMAN) would NOT START!!! It went for $120,000. Over at Russo-Steele Auction -- Ole RED ALERT was a No Sale-the bidding got up to either $80,000 or $90,000--when they drove it into the auction area poeple started Clapping it sounded great!! The (26 MILE) LS-6 was up to $245,000 and the owner Did Not Sale. Also at the end of Barrett-Jackson the '68 YENKO Camaro (blue) was RUSHED thru and the Auctioneer brought the hammer down at $98,000 and some people were still bidding on it and the Owner was Mad...Sorry can't remember some of the exact figures on a couple of the cars. Had a Great Time, now have to go back home to tempertures in the single degits--COLD!!! Mark [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/laugh.gif[/img]
