Reggie's YENKO Chevelle (white) got up to $125,000 and then all of a sudden it just seemed like the bidding stopped--his Reserve was $175,000!!!!! Mark

Mark, What was the reserve on that 26 mile LS6 chevelle? Just wondering because I got an unrestored black 69 RS/Z28 with very low miles!

Did the red 69 crossram Z28 @ Russo & Steele auction sell?

Another question for Mark if he has time [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/tongue.gif[/img]

You mentioned on an earlier thread about a 69 Chevelle SS, Blue, 325 HP sold for $50K on Friday. Man, that is big money. Did you by any chance get a look at that car?

I just finished reading the list of 1969 camaros that have sold at the auction and what they sold for. I just saw a yellow crossram 4-wheel disc brake Z/28 sell for $32,000 a green COPO for $49,000 and some other Z/28s in the low to mid 20s. When you factor in the fees paid to sell these cars at this auction, does it look like the prices are leveling off?

Figures mean nothing if you don't see the cars or the paperwork. The prices you stated would indicate non documented cars that are most likely not "real", IMO, of course. Hopefully the folks that saw the cars will report.

Anyone have a chance to look at the gold 69 L-78 Rag that was there #755.It was supposed to be a unrestored car,black top and interior that sold for 97 and change.This was a local car in Cleveland that was sold last year or two for approx 39k.What a jump!Anybody else know the car?I find this hard to believe....From the photos I see from BJ,it has been touched up and detailed under the hood since I saw it last.......97,200 [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/shocked.gif[/img]

Soem of you guys must be looking at old auctions on the BJ web site. I was surprised to see the 67 Z28 with cowl plenum sell for only 31K. Was there something seriously wrong with that car, it sure looked great. Anyone see that car close up?

Thanks very much Mark, that makes more sense.

92646..I think you were looking at old results, not this years. I think Reggies Deuce was mostly orig. paint that was presentable. There was a very nice Blue 68Z, not sure of the price. 67 Z looked decent, somebody probably got a deal. Reggies white Yenko Chevelle is a nice car. It is a older Tinnell resto with the white Cad plated bolts that Dwiggins always insisted on. The Olympic gold 69 L78 convert was a neat car that every time the current owner touched it he screwed something up. He bolted on a spoiler, he painted the subframe, he painted the rockers, looks like he clear coated the hood. Close examination of the orig. blacked out tail panel seems to confirm Gloss Black versus Semi. Red 69 Crossram Z28 at Russo and Steele sold for about 60K. The body seems to have been prepped wrong and the paint is cracking, shrinking etc. Pro Touring Dodge Charger with the Viper engine brought 105K. Boyds Aluma Truck only brought 80K, he must be very sick. There had to be a forune in that truck. My old Blue 68 Yenko brought 98K. I heard the Lamar Walden COPO sold for good money but I don't remember how much. There was something for everybody there. People paid stupid money and People got great deals.
