Re: Mecum St.Charles 10/07
Anyone know how the bidding closed on John Platania's Douglass Yenko? Sale/No-sale?
Rich PS. John...after stumbling into your sale at the annual Car-B-Q, WASSUP. Is this 'fire sale' season? LOL

Re: Mecum St.Charles 10/07
I traded the time there for a "quality time" get away with my wife, no kids...
 Any indication of the overall sell/unsold ratio? Anyone want to speculate as to what was up, down, holding their own? Thanks! ~Patrick

Re: Mecum St.Charles 10/07
I think I heard Friday was 60-70% percent sale range ? Things seemed fine to me. I did meet someone on the hotel elevator that had come to the auction for the first time last year and bought a Boss 302. He brought it back to sell this year and he was worried about a down market. It was clear to me that this guy read a wall street type article over a year ago and bought the car purely as a investment. He did not strike me as a car enthusiast, just a speculator. I don't mind if he doesn't make any money.

Re: Mecum St.Charles 10/07
Up until Saturday around noon 55.8% of the cars sold. Some very nice cars and great time! I am sure that percentage may have increased as the quality of cars did?!
