It would be nice to see some documentation of cars selling at these prices. Some people in the hobby could over inflate actual selling prices, and then other buyers pay to much. But there are also the buyer who are willing to pay any price, even more than it's worth. To impress others for bragging rights. The market prices have jumped, from straight 6 cars,to super cars.

Joe, you're right! I absolutely KNOW I've had Baker's name on the roll somewhere, and thought I listed it under Brian or Joe another year when Baker couldn't make it (or something like that)...but it's since vanished! If you can find out definitely it's years of attendance, I'll get it on there ASAP...

Charley...do you have any NOS 4x4 springs that seems to be the rage on some of these restorations where the car is a foot higher than it's supposed to be ? The RG car was done RIGHT !!!

Well, I'm hearing of more COPO cars selling for $170-$185K recently so I would assume the Yenkos will be selling for more than that. I'm still kind of shocked that the COPOs have jumped that much since last year. I remember that Brown RS COPO that couldn't sell for $105K late last year. I can't remember all the details on that car but I thought it was original motor and documented. I'm now surprised this Yenko did not get up to $200K since that appears to be the going range. Barrett Jackson is gonna be fun to watch!

I have seen a lot of restorations, what I look for in a restoration are cars that represent what was done on the assembly line. I see a lot of restorers that deviate from the factory processes for the wow factor, and a cleaner look. Each car restoration should be unique based on the what is found during the disassembly process .To me this is the most critical phase, without this information the car loses its true identity. Yes it require much time and become a tedious documetation process. Although these car were built on the assembly line they were not all built the same. There were many variables that caused this, such as; build date, supply shortages, vendor changes, assembly plants, to name a few. It seems that some restorers take the easy way out and produce generic cookie cutter restorations. As the say the devil is in the details

Selling prices are really nobodies business...it's between the seller and the buyer whether they choose to make that info public

Well, somebody thought that this Yenko was worth $186,702.09 which is still a pretty good price. Seems odd that the high bidders ID was kept private throughout the auction process.
