Auto Auctions

[69hemibeep]

Looks like I'm going to kill two days next week. Russo Steele has a good line of high end mopars so there goes a day and Barrett Jackson. Russo has a reserve auction so they have been pulling in quality cars. http://www.russoandsteele.com/run_lists.php Then if I get board there is the Silver Auction

I dunno... I looked around at the A12 site, but didn't see who's car it is/was.

Why is the air grabber wrong?

 

[Big John]

There's a little rubber deal on the airgrabber just above the master cylinder that gives some clearance for the power brake booster. They were on all the Hemi cars, even without power brakes.

Ahhh... I see.

I'm quite sure that I looked at this car at Carlisle last summer. I was intrigued...but the auto kept me from falling in lust with it. What can I say; even though I have several autos I am a 4-speed guy at heart. Besides, I really wanted a lift-off hood so I just admired it for a while and walked away...

I don't get it? I missed the car on the block and its listed as "not sold" :loco:

 

[Big John]

I read on the A12 forum that the Hemi car went for $63K.

 

[69hemibeep]

I found its not a numbers car either, but still a pretty good buy. I think B-J is feeling the no reserve, the total for the year is almost cut in half. Russo seems to be getting better cars every year. I looked at the A12 at Russo and it was a very nice car without checking #s.

Wasn't this a hemi only thing because of the relocated master cylinder? My '69 GTX (440 car) has power disc and no rubber boot in the air grabber.

Yes, I believe so.
