Anyone able to make it out the Scottsdale, Az Barrett Jackson this year? Here are a few of the top sellers of the weekend:
A 1967 Chevrolet Corvette L88 (above), one of only 20 made and the only one that’s red-on-red, sold for $3.85 million with the 10 percent bidder fee on top of the $3.5 million price.
A 1969 L88 Corvette race car known as “The Rebel” sold for $2.86 million (which includes the bidder fee). One of the most successful road racers of all time, The Rebel set records that stood for decades.
A restored Amos Minter 1957 Ford Thunderbird was bought for $330,000. A stunning vehicle in Gunmetal Gray over red, it was equipped with the E Series dual 4-barrel carburetor setup and was one of only 4 percent of T-birds that year to be equipped with a manual transmission.
A 2014 COPO Camero drag race car (like the one above) sold for $700k on behalf of the Achilles Foundation of Freedom Team of Wounded Veterans.
