I don't know about Don and Judi, but I sure had fun.

The car is going to a GREAT home!

Interesting that the last few bidders were not any of the "expected bidders", although they were all Yenko enthusiasts.

Sounds like the predictions of the Yenko Market crashing from the peanut gallery was completely wrong. Maybe Color, originality, history and provenance can have an effect on market value?


Congrats guys!

Glad to see a respectable price! Stefano and Mecum did a great job on the marketing of the car.

Yes, Judi and I had a great time. Stefano did a outstanding job from the time of consignment until the check was in our hands. The Mecum people are great and have every detail covered so nothing is left to chance.

If you have never been to this event you should put it on your schedule for next year. It is a great car show with tons of knowledgeable people in attendance.

It was difficult to part with the car after owning it for 24 years. So far, no sellers remorse, but time will tell. After meeting and talking with the new owners I'm convinced that it has a wonderful new home.

When you factor in buyers fees (6%) the actual sales price was $367,700. The great cars still bring great money.

Thanks to all who have supported and helped with the car and once again a special thanks to Stefano.
