Default Re: Barrett-Jackson Friday- 2014!!

Anyone see the Mecum guy slam the hood on the red 71 Hemi Cuba convertible at the Kissimmee auction? I think he should have taken out the hood clevis pins before he did that. Not pretty and the camera happened to be right there at the pins when he did it.

It might have been as I just caught the tail end. I just cringed when I saw him slam the hood shut and saw the clips still in the pins. That had to leave a mark.
