Mecum Auction

November 14, 2015

My buddy Doug went to the Mecum Auction on the 13th, ended up buying a rare 57 Chevy, so he needed a ride on Saturday to pick it up ! Hell yea I went ! He had a guest pass for me, and we checked it all out while his new car was being processed.

This 69 was looking for a new home, but wasn't sold, during our time there. These pix are off my phone, I left my camera on the table when I left my house....figures....

I didn't write anything down, I know it said it had over 400 horses, but I don't remember, it's the golden year memory thing, not that it's ever been that good in the first place.

Sorry, but I don't like this, maybe it's just me.

This Big Bad Blue did sell, I think it was $25,500. Not sure on the color, seemed like it was a shade off to me, my BBB I had years ago seemed different.

I still liked it, It's an AMX, what's not to like !

I guess I'm just partial to Green now.

I guess the drawback was the 343, but it's a BBB 343, so you can't change it.

This is where I may be in trouble with the new owner, the front bumper needs work, and I think the fit is off, I know it's mostly just adjustments, but it looks fresh, and I think it should have been taken care of. My AMX needs work too, but it bugged me a little. Still a pretty car.

This little cutey was being moved, so I had to get a quick shot. I didn't get any info.

There were plenty of Gorgeous cars here, but I only took a few pix, going to car shows kind of shuts you down a little on the standard models, but a few stood out, like this Baby !

And this monster Hemi ! I had more pix, but most were blurry, this thing is Bad Ass !

I'm an Aston Martin Fan, but they are not for tall people, but

This 2003 DB7 only had 8,950 miles on it !

And the high bid was only $37,500 !....but what do you do with it ? My wife loves them too, but we already park a mile away from everything, so we won't get ding'd, and it's not really a grocery getter....so till we win the lottery, they are just for looking at.

We are on our way Home !

And the freeway is not exactly free flowing !

But we made it ! My first Auction.
