$330K 69 RS Z28 at Barrett-Jackson
 
Interested to learn the "Rest of The Story" on the Fathom Green 69 Z28

There was also a Red 69 Z that sold for $220K ??? plus commission ...........

Same guy had the desert sand LS6, a blue 69 Z (lot 1088.1 165,000) and a red 69 Z (lot 1085.1 203,500) . All had Jerrys authentication. Trunk spatter wrong and reproduction boosters on all of them. Nice paint and the LS6 glowed in the sun.

$300K plus the juice for 69 Z/28? I'd love to hear more as well

More wrong with those cars than what you mentioned. That seller is the “King of Fluff” and knows how to lay a car out for those auctions….he is very good at it. MS Classics just sold a green R/S ‘69 Z for $160 (almost positive on the number) on BaT that was likely a better car for 1/2 of the B-J sale price.
If I’m not mistaken, the seller at B-J is the same guy that got something north of $200k for a ‘65 Chevelle convertible (with a color change) a few years ago.

When you get a car fluffed to that level and put it in front of deep pockets who are itching for another toy while drinking & boasting amongst themselves, it's the perfect storm to pull huge dough. Of course timing over the block plays a big part of this and depends who you are as a seller, and what you bring to BJ stakeholders.

Curious to know if JM produces page 2/3 of his reports to go with the cars and details all the things that are wrong with a resto? Somehow I doubt that there would be additional pages to discredit incorrect items of a car, and that it's just the CERTIFICATE that Barrett is paying him for? Curious to know how that is posted onsite?

Full on report...or just the CERT posted publicly? :dunno:

Maybe the Fathon green one sold for more than the Lemans Blue and Garnet Red ones because it had the 302 emblems on the cowl hood?

I must say the body and paint work on all 3 cars was beautifully done but can't speak on what other parts (other than missing emblems) was right or wrong on the cars.

Those cars would not even be eligible for Camaro Legends judging in Chicago or Morgantown.

Anyone know the reserve price on this green Z/28?


We all know that the big auction houses can & will "shill bid" up to the reserve price (they say so, in writing). I'm just wondering if there really were two (or more) bidders driving this one into the stratosphere

No reserve on any (just maybe a few on the high end million dollar cars) of the cars going over the block at Barrett Jackson. It's not like Mecum.

Attending Barrett Jackson and watched that RS Z on the block. Pretty crazy near the end to watch. My assessment - Paint was overall excellent. Lots of questionable paint dabs and markings. Subframe has notable pitting. Various technical issues. Overall, very clean car though and presents well.

Here's some pics of the car on the floor -
