Auction Cars
Who has some information about the GM auction in Arizona for oldtimers and special cars?
Have read in the motorpress that GM sells some special cars of the own collection to make some money. Has somebody got a link to an auction catalogue? Or how could I take part in the auction? When?
Do you mean the Barrett Jackson auction held in Arizona? They featured that on The Speed Channel constantly for the past few days, but I think it may be over now. Too bad that you missed it.
GM sold some one-of-a-kind concept cars in the auction, and some of them didn't sell for as high as I thought considering how unique they were. Here's some of them that I saw go up for auction -
1992 Chevy Impala SS 510ci (actually had a 510ci big block!)
1994 Chevy Impala SS 6-speed manual (all of the production versions had 4-speed automatics)
1987 Pontiac Trans Am Twin Turbo (I would have bought this one if I had the money LOL!)
1990's C4 Corvette 454 (yes, they put a 454 in a C4 Corvette!)
1990's Corvette ZR-1 with active suspension
There were a few others but I can't remember what they were.

Auction! $3.48 Tres Seymour's lively story is humorously brought to life by Cat Bowman Smith's down-home illustrations. "Whee-oo " When Aunt Lou hears there's a county auction coming up, she can't contain her excitement (as her young niece observes). But when she and the family arrive at the auction site, Aunt Lou comes face to face with her long-standing rival, Miss Logsdon. One look makes clear that these ladies can't stand to lose to each other, even when bidding on such dubious treasures as old china, a stuffed groundhog, or a zinc tub. Aunt Lou's niece has her eye on a straw hat -- the spitting image of Daddy's -- which fits her better than her own hair. But can anyone outbid Aunt Lou and Miss Logsdon when they get going? |

Muscle Cars (Paperback) $7.41 In 2010, a 1970 Plymouth Superbird fetched $286,000 at an auction in Scottsdale, Arizona. In 2009, a 1970 Plymouth Hemi Barracuda sold for $2.16 million. Auctions of classic cars in general and muscle cars in particular routinely garner upwards of $39 million annually. Since their debut in the early 1960s, Americans have been in love with the horsepower under the hood of muscle cars like the GTO, Camaro, and Mustang. From their origins in Detroit, muscle cars became the stuff of dreams for millions of baby boomers. Car buff and historian Colin Romanick lifts the hood on these classics in Muscle Cars, covering everything from legendary automotive icons like John DeLorean and Lee Iacocca to the differences between muscle cars and pony cars to the relationship between street cars and racing cars. Romanick also looks at the economic environmental effects of the 1970s that brought an end to the muscle car era. |
