Okay...Bill Eaton (427TJ) flew down from Washington and is staying at my place. We went to B-J a bit later today...We met up with Ken and Paulette...Denis, Charley, Andy (quickbowtie),Bud, Mark (Late Brake U2) and Bart (47Hammer). We had a great time...though it was wet and cold. I didn't take a lot of pics...as the weather sucked.

Had a great dinner with Bill, Mark and Bart...

Okay...pics.

Looking at Bill,think he knew something about that snake?

Bruce,
Had a blast! It was great meeting you and Bill,Denis,Budnate,Ken T.,and the rest of the SYC crew-all quality people and I mean that sincerely.Denis and Janill[sp]were gracious hosts,pavillions was amazing,and the auction was rather enlightening.

A couple of thoughts from the weekend-

Get there early next year for some deals(which probably everyone is thinking right now)

Sell at R&S and buy at BJ..I can't see them going back to reserve-it's reality TV and would be the kiss of death for ratings.

Like previously stated the good stuff brought fair value,but there was saturtation on some cars that allowed for choice(mopars and mustangs were like buses-one rolling by every fifteen minutes)

LS6 Chevelles are the Rodney Dangerfield of muscle(no respect)

Two out of every three 69Z's had crossrams(eat your heartbeat city out)

Rain sucks,but the tent was warm.

Bruce is a class act,Holly and Lynn are great,and I finally figured out what his handle meant!

Can't wait for 08,i'll bring my wallet next time as it's truly the house of pain without one!

I also had a great time meeting everyone and discussing our passion for the automobile.

Bill, Your right I could have stayed and talked all night after dinner, I was having a great time. It always amazes me how many people are interested in the same things, cars, motorcycles, "skycycles", airplanes and any thing that goes fast. Talking about the San Jose mile and the riders from the past was awesome too! It's always nice to put a face with the name (user ID).

Only that it was one bad-ass and historical piece. I would have never guessed five million though. I think I told Bruce that I felt it was the star of the show and that it might get a million, maybe 1.5 million. (Just goes to show what I know about auction dynamics.)

For me, seeing that car in person was just like the time I saw Abraham Lincoln's top hat, the same hat that was on his lap when he was shot in Ford's Theater in 1865, in the Smithsonian in D.C. Wow.
