I posted this in the "other events" forum, but this thresd is more active-
Here is a link to the shots I took at the Mecum auction last week.Almost all were of the Camaros being sold.On most of the cars I tried to get a shot of the car, then the auction description, trim tag, and then any misc. shots of the car. They are not all in order, but mostly follow this format.

Tom, the turquoise Gibb/Harrell bid to 165 with a reserve north of 200.
Over all I thought the prices were strong with the good cars bringing top dollars and the not so good just sitting there. There appeared to be a lot of pressure on the owners to lower the reserves if the auction company thought they were close, I'm sure at that point they were negotiating lowered selling commissions. The best buy I saw was a 69 HO Z-28 that had been through all the judging at Carlisle and scored 92% sold for $84,000. The car was super nice and very correct. Most all the problems discovered at Carlisle had been corrected. Reserve was $90K but lowered on the block to get the sale.

A local guy here in Dayton, Ohio owned that Z. One of the best 69 Z's I have ever seen.
There is always alot of pressure on the block to sell a car, after all that is what we are all there for. The auction company knows the resereves are inflated in most cases and the seller knows the auction will negotiate if they are close. It is all part of the game.

Hey Don I was there and really didnt see to many top dollar cars sell. I felt like dealers were selling to each other and a few high dollar cars sold..
My guy bought the H.O Camaro and it is real sweet piece.
A lot of Vettes !!!
Everybody tells me about the Cobra but what other big dollar car sold ???
