'70 W30 ragtop was NR and bid to $135K but I believe this was bot back by owner as well. Car was decent but had a few issues: Sat too high, door alignment, painted gas tank, pin striping anomalyies (minor). Thorntons verified validity of car with a letter in window. Only other doc was a POP-but for Olds that does not speak to drivetrain. Can't beat that color combo!

Quite a few nice Mopars at this event including this Hemi 500 in BLACK! This was a NR and bid to $177.5K - don't know who bot it. Sharp-sharp car.

Bill W. had quite a prescence there with some awesome Mopar rides. Here is his Daytona 440 Magnum that was used in original commercials back in the day.



Top bid on this NR was $155K.

Seemed to me that there was more Ford $ than GM or Mopar at R&S this year.

Another notable result:

'69 RAIV Red with White 'vert top GTO with auto: NR, $162K

The Yenko Vega is an interesting piece, but if I'm reading the info correctly, its been modified pretty heavily. Though much more fun like this, for the "purist", doesn't this car need to have a modified 4 banger reinstalled? Wouldn't a price penalty be paid for someone dropping an LS6 into their Yenko Deuce to make it more fun? Plus, even with all of the good Yenko PR and lore that's been spread for the last 5 years, do you think even 5% of the people in that tent even knew Yenko made special Vegas? Price seems very OK to me.....just my $0.02, which, when adjusted for mania, is worth even less in Scottsdale in January

Any news on Daves Prototype Z16 yet? I had the honor of meeting Dave and his son at the November Chevy Vettefest and he is a real Gentleman and the "Before, During and After" Z-16 display he put together with this car was absolutely awesome.

Akron Arlen Vanke's beast (the sound of that motor was THUNDEROUS! )went across the block tonight and was an NR that was sold at $2 mil.



Arlen, himself, made an appearance for a little hoopla - I think it worked!
