Exactly, price is not important at all to anyone else but the owner. I am a buyer of these vintage racecars with history and would guesstimate could fetch anywhere from $50k to $100k today.

I'm guessing that anybody who REALLY wants to know can call the auction company and find out what was the winning bid. I also know that as previously observed, it's not of any importance to anyone but Dave. I started this thread for Dave at his request, and there should be no doubt that this car is a keeper. When he is done going through the drivetrain, and fluffing up the exterior, this car will be seeing some track time for the first time since 1974.
I promise that there will be more pics posted as the project continues.
Thanks,
Andy

Like I said, since it was a public auction and not a private sale, I didn't think it was going to be a big deal. Apparently, I was wrong. I don't understand why the owner doesn't just say I paid XXXXXX amount of dollars for it and put it to rest. Eventually, somebody is going to post the figure, I am just curious as are most others. Sorry for asking.

Man, what a great find! My congrats as well! Drive it like you stole it.
Did I miss someting or was it never stated why the car was parked and remained untouched since 1974?
BTW, perch perogies at the Whip sounds pretty good!

If Dave wanted to announce the price he would have but since he wants to keep it to himself please give him the courtesy and drop the subject. The price was a fair market value for a COPO missing the original engine/trans and the family of the late owner did well with the sell. Mark

No matter what the price was, who cares. Great find Dave. All I ask for is a link to the utube video of it screaming down the 1/4 mile. I can't wait.

I will offer free enclosed transport to "The Ratical One" in November so we can all see it at the MCACN! Let me know.
