I think I can safely say I bought more cars at Barrett-Jackson this year than anyone else. I bought 116 Corvettes....Top that...

The one before it was just as nice.

I'm still kicking myself for not pulling the trigger on the black one though. It was beautiful. In fact both were beautiful.

Damn dude.. that car is so worth $50k... is that what it went for?

I know I would get carried away with the bidding. I'm stubborn like that.

It was worth more then that. Both cars had perfect paint jobs and no rust that the eye could see. You never know till you get into it, but both cars were killer. And both would be worth more after a few nice touches. It was my first auction, so I had a bit of the "should I shouldn't I" syndrome, but I now think I made the wrong choice on the black one. Even the wife says I should have done it. But there is always next year.

If it makes you feel any better....You don't know how far the other bidder would have gone. Just because you quit bidding and he won doesn't mean he was gonna quit soon.

Charlie, I thought you bought the real Coach that went through, I saw the title and was like nooo, he really didn't buy that thing!!!

The 68 Yenko Camaro for 170K plus fees was a good buy, IMO. Friend Colin bought it.
