Default Re: Barrett-Jackson 2004

I didn't buy a thing at B-J (unlike The Lillard), but I did buy a 1961 Dodge Dart Phoenix with the D500 305HP Big Block at the Silver auction the prior week.

Very cool car, I bought it because it is the only one I have ever seen! It is the car on the HMN 2003 calendar for October, and it was in SIA magazine in 2000.

Push-button trans, and it chirps the tires on upshifts! Plus, we discovered that when driving home from B-J after a few drinks that the car actually drove BETTER if I took my hands off of the wheel and let IT drive - at 80 mph!

I think I saw Charley pedaling some freaky looking bicycle in the parking lot, but it was raining, and well, those drinks....
