ZL1, Yenko, Harrell, at Russo & Steele

[SeattleCarGuy]

I thought the '69 Harrell Camaro at BJ was beautiful. In my own humble opinion, I think it was fairly priced bringing in $230k-ish at BJ. But, as a comparison, if the '69 Harrell brought that much, then I would have thought the Yellow Yenko at R&S should have brought a bit more than it did. My reasoning is that while the '69 was beautiful, had a good documented, history, etc. (as did the Douglas Yenko), the Harrell car was an automatic and the Yenko was a 4-speed. In my own opinion, I think the auto's should be 25% less than a comparable 4 speed. The only thing I didn't like about my '70 Harrell Camaro was the automatic. I just personally won't buy another automatic trans muscle/super car. Nothing other than personal preference here, since I only drive my cars on occasion and when I do, I prefer the nostalgic feel of a 4 speed.

Everyone has their own preference and it doesn't always hold true that 4 speeds bring more. The '70 L78 Nova (black/black) brought over $70k and it was a column shift auto. I think that is big money for an L78 Nova, column shift car. I'd love to buy Charley's '69 L78 project Nova, but that damn column shift keeps me from doing it.
