Default Re: Briggs Chevelle Sells for $1,150,000

Here's a short explanation. Ray Allen started restoring the car years ago when race cars didn't bring the dollars we are seeing today.

Chip Gerst bought the car only a few months ago as a 3/4 done original type restoration. He hardly had the time to finish the car as you saw it let alone researching all the race parts and race modifications that would be needed to make it an all out race car.

I believe the Briggs Chevrolet and T/K lettering along with Cragar wheels brought back lots of memories of its racing days for many of us.

The car did well at BJ because it is the most famous LS6 Chevelle in NHRA History.
