The Lawman went to Goldberg on the phone and I was standing next to the buyer with Goldberg on the phone and was offered more money to sell it to a private buyer. I think he made 20+ without touching it !!! Nice day on the phone for five min.. [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/tongue.gif[/img]

I couldnt give this car away when I was asked to sell the Lawman a few years back for 90's.
Hope it goes to a cool museum with all the cool stuff they just found on this car. Tons of photo's

From the limited coverage on TV, my favorite car was that R-code Fairlane. Very cool car.

Five minutes after The Lawman sold, a friend of mine was looking for the guy who handled the phone sale because he had a friend on his phone who was willing to pay Goldberg $160,000. Are old race cars with history that hot now, or was this just a one time thing?

Who is Goldberg? I was told the other Bidder on the "Lawman" was a Professional Wrestler. It sounds as if I gave up too soon. I wouldn't know if all old race cars bring high dollars, but this one with it's unique history appears to have.

I thought the Lawman would go at least $150K as I have seen a few historical drag cars in the 150-200 range. The Lawman has a more interesting history then many of the other ones. That may not have been the best place to sell a car like that. here is a web site on the Lawman.

Kevin,
I am no speculator but I think this would have been a very good investment. This was very big news during the Viet Nam era and I think this cars value will like keep climbing. I can recall many stories my brother told me about these cars on his tour. Quite a history.

I am aware of some of the history of the Lawman and would prefer the 1964 Fury Hardtop Race car. [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/cool.gif[/img] I don't follow the race cars but had heard that the Mustang sold was the back up car??? So who has the other one?
