Default Monterey car Crazy wknd...better late than never!

Yes...I know it's late but at my age,I'm still recouping from all the festivities.

Starting at the RM auction on Friday...

'67 T/A car with some history.Amazingly,very little said when it was being hammered,no sell @ $160K:








East Coast Penske-clone car...owner thinks it's the real deal...I'd say my car is closer to being a T/A car than this one.Were hoping for $150K...car brought $65K which was about twice it's worth...imho:


Interesting 24-hour barn-find SCCA car,competed in both LeMans & Sebring,don't know if it sold or not:




Essex Wire car...expected to bring $450-$500K:
