Anyone watch Mecum yesterday? Among many other beauties. The 1/1 version of FM's 1971 Green ZR2 Corvette sold for over a MILLION!!!! According to the announcers there were only two convertibles produced of the 12 cars made with the ZR2 engine option.

Yes. Did you see the 1958 DeSoto Adventurer cv with fuel injection? Got to $375K but didn't meet the reserve! Several HUGE dollar Ferraris sold. Great auction.

Yes saw that...I believe Dana Mechum said it would take $400K to own it!

How about the 60 Chrysler 300 w/4speed that set the record for Daytona flying mile @ 140mph. Didn't meet the reserve either.
