Barrett-Jackson 2004

[Charley Lillard]

Passport Transport was hauling a load of cars for someone out of Missouri I think. The Driver got up yesterday and opened the trailer to find there had been a fire inside. I guess a 46 Ford Truck had the battery hold down bracket short across the bat posts and destroyed it and damaged the rest of the load, all owned by one guy with no insurance. Here is a pic of the supercharged T Bird that was above it. I think lack of Oxygen is what put the fire out.

Other cars in the load that were smoke damaged but the detail guys are trying to clean up for the auction. These were all nice looking cars. Bummer

Charley or Diego,

I hate to bother ya, but I noticed on the Barrett-Jackson site that there may be a high-priced 68 GTO going across the block. The description is below, but there's no photo. Could you maybe snap a picture of this car? It sounds like it "could" be a RAII GTO because they state it has a rare RAIV cam. Either that, or it's a typo.

Thanks!
