Interesting auction…many well-bought cars at bargain prices. The Pontiacs’ seemed to take a big hit with the current economic conditions. Not sure if the division being phased out had some bearing on everyone selling their Ponchos? The 1969 TA ragtop had NO real bidders. The beautiful Orbit Orange 1970 Judge convertible restored by Level One topped out at 150K. Another stunning silver 1970 Judge ragtop sold for what I believe was around 110K. This particular car sold for double a couple years back. Many 1969 TAs had trouble climbing in price. The Swiss-cheese Catalina’s did well as always. Also the Oldsmobiles’ did surprisingly well with two coupes selling for around 100K and a trac-pack recreation going for 110K. Some Corvettes were absolute bargains!! All in all it was a fun auction with plenty to see and do!
