    Re: Barrett Jackson ETC.

    I've recorded most of B-J and haven't yet watched where RH buys the Z06. Any idea who the other bidder was? In the building or phone bidder?

        Since the TV feed camera focused only on Dale in the Skyboxes, bidding for Mr. H while talking on his cell phone, and the people on the bidding podium, I could not see any other bidders. I suspect there were no other bidders as the price got past a million or so, and this was a pre-arranged sale with chandelier bidders running it up to the price Mr. H had agreed to pay.

            Thanks-that was my thought as well. If true, a number of people are 'taken in' by this charade. I'm sure there are other behind the scenes 'arrangements' as well which is probably the nature of the business at that level.
            The prices were indeed off the charts, but it makes you wonder when the bubble will burst?

                Maybe Mecum had a direct site that I missed. I went through Motor Trend+. It was worth it the small fee as I knew the 1969 that Dick once owned was going to be there.

                    Hurrying to finish my Johnny Cash Resto-Rod and get it to Barrett-Jackson next year!

                        It certainly seems people want pomp and excitement when they buy these days, maybe the dealers and private sales are a thing of the past.

                            My take away was this: I should go buy a Bronco off the lot and raise it so it stands taller than my house, then auction it for $300k
