I think it's because alone,they're both a great piece of Americana by themselves.Together they align & can bring others to pay that kind of money.
This particular type of car,plus Bruce owning it = transcends the norm.
If Bruce owned a yellow Triumph TR7 back then instead and it had a pencil in the glovebox with his teeth marks on it,it wouldn't get 1/5th this price.
..are you listening Jon Voight.

Yes, that's the car he bought to gain LESS attention than the 57 Chevy Convertible in the auction. The auction car is probably worth pretty close to the estimated $850K. Why wouldn't it be? It has a much greater appeal to a wider audience than some obscure optioned muscle car that has sold for more.

Whatever the 57 sells for, the 60 Corvette will double when the time comes. JMHO.

Bruce is probably shaking his head and saying W.T.F.!?

I saw the Joplin car sell on Chasing Classic Cars.I guess you can say any car is worth what someone is willing to pay!

It's obsession with an artist or trying to foretell an uptick in the cars value. The 57 value would obviously increase if Bruce passed away. Don't know what would buy the car?
