Did Gary's silver Deuce and Green Yenko Camaro cross the block? If so, what did they bid to?

Gary Holub owned the rebodied cars. He is usually very up front about what he has that is a rebody. He disclosed two of them very clearly but the ZL1 he was not as clear but the sale price reflected that most probably knew.

The current listing on the BJ website does disclose the ZL-1 as "Rebodied"

my problem is the remarks Barrett Jackson made about the 'history' of the ZL-1...besides the whole fiasco of the auction itself.......I missed the Green Yenko auction...what did that sell for? ..but the Deuce was very clear that it was rebodied..although the 'ax' story was pretty weak... jmo

my opinion is that re-bodied car's shouldn't be getting the Saturday Night Fever limelight... they certainly don't deserve that fiasco... i'm very disappointed in some things from an integrity standpoint.... the green car DID have a Reggie Jackson nameplate on the front bumper, and it definately appeared to me that he was bidding it up for someone... play back the tapes carefully, and you'll see what I mean..

on the other hand, the Gwynn limelight auction was a very sobering and tearjerk timeframe, what a ultra classy guy. What he and Rick Hendrick did was emotional, and from the solid value core of the heart strings..

I missed what ever it was that Rick Hendrick did that was emotional but I laughed my ass off when he bought the 2010 Camaro and everyone thought it was the greatest gesture in the world. Lets see, Hendrick gets factory backed support from Chevrolet, Chevrolet dontates the 1st public 2010 Camaro to charity. Isnt that kind of like me giving you 1,000,000 bucks and you giving me half of it back? WOW, great gesture!

Something needs to be done about the announcers criticising the bidders for not spending high $. I dont know how many times Steve or Craig got on the mic to bitch about people not spending money. They sound like a bunch of whiney little brats.

I'd like to know how the ZL-1 was represented to B-J and if anyone in their organization is aware of the true story surrounding the car. I am not sure how extensivly Steve Davis researches the cars they select for consignment. We sold a 70 GSX Stage 1 car last year and while on the block, they basically described the car to the audience exactly as we wrote the ad copy.
