OK, I am completely confused by the wording on that poster.

Is he trying to say that this is a clone with the engine from car #62?

Here's the quote at the bottom of the poster: "In a world where you can have one or the other it is nice to at least have One than not have any at all"??????

If you are not completely confused, please, let me keep talking !!

"Is he trying to say that this is a clone with the engine from car #62?" - yes, as vaguely as possible.

markjohnson 10-06-2007 06:24 PM

Re: Pictures from Fall 2007 Mecum auction
 
You are correct Steve. I've been wondering for a couple of years now about when this car would be discussed. It is a beautiful car that is built around the original #62 engine. The actual #62 car is also accounted for and had a NOM engine in place. So in essence, there are two (2) #62 cars. Always liked that particular car due to the fact of it being the only red-on-red car produced. This is a new, undiscovered method of doubling production numbers for rare, limited edition cars. Just think of a worm splitting in two.

njsteve 10-06-2007 09:01 PM

Re: Pictures from Fall 2007 Mecum auction
 
The lawyers would have a field day with his choice of words in that poster. Saying that "This car not only retains the correct matching number..." is specificaly implying that it was this particular car's engine to begin with. You cannot retain something that did not originate with that car from the factory. It cannot be matching number if it doesnt match the VIN of the car it is bolted in to.

What he should have said was: "This car CONTAINS the engine..."

Even a first year law student (or a fifth grade English Teacher) could win this case.

My crystal ball says that if this car sells and the buyer later claims he was mislead by that advertisement, there will be a buyback in the future. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...s/rolleyes.gif

BTW, it is an awesome looking car, though. I do love red on red cars.

markjohnson 10-06-2007 09:49 PM

Re: Pictures from Fall 2007 Mecum auction
 
I've spoken with the owner of this car and the #62 engine has been offered to the owner #62 car but they could not come to a financial agreement. I don't know what to think of the whole thing. It's a beautiful car and it's kind of neat that there's actually two red-on-red #62 cars (except to the owner of the only real one) for the public to enjoy seeing. At least the engine's not in some speed boat or street rod.

Re: Pictures from Fall 2007 Mecum auction
 
Yenko had a Replacment motor but a pretty nice car! and a stick to top it off I thought for sure it would bring $275 or more. The bidders were alittle crazy I think.. so guy paid 160k for a black 70 Cuda 383 Convert with a wrong engine and no papers (very nice car but thats stupid money for that car!)..Some cheap cars were bringing double of what I thought they should and then some good cars fell short?? Lots and lots of dealers looking for good buys or guys willing to lose there butts..

Nice car for the money.

Every car brought to Auction doesen't get sold, at the auction? 50% plus sale rate is tremendous, with a reserve auction.
