From Jeeps to Mustangs and even a Model T Circus Wagon, Friday’s Collector Car Auction offered a little something for everyone! Topping the list for the day was a 1947 @bentleymotors Mark VI (Lot 398) that sold for 97,900. Other top sales included a 1966 @Chevrolet Chevelle SS (Lot 456) for 91,300, as well as a custom 1969 @gmc C2500 pickup nicknamed “Chillipepper” (Lot 449), which set a new auction world record with its 82,500 sale. A 1966 Chevrolet Corvette 327/300 (Lot 420) was also in the spotlight with its 80,300 sale.
The day added several auction world-record sales to the tally, including a 2004 @Honda S2000 convertible (Lot 374) and a 1972 Dodge Charger 440 Magnum (Lot 412) that crossed the block for 79,200.
Onstage in the morning, the auction block was illuminated by colorful signs, pristine restored gas pumps and globes, vintage porcelain and tin signs, soda collectibles and more nostalgic pieces of the past. The star of the day’s Automobilia Auction was an impeccable @shell Oil neon porcelain sign (Lot 7298) from the 1930s, which sold for 69,000. Other items in the top slots for automobilia included a 1928 Standard Red Crown Gasoline Fry Model 87 visible gas pump (Lot 7282) for 44,850, as well as a Gilmore Oil Wayne 100 gas pump (Lot 7284) from the late 1940s that crossed the block for 33,350. A 1950s Chris-Craft Woody coin-operated kiddie ride (Lot 7268.2) went to its new home for 16,962.
Not only did the auction showcase amazing vehicles and automobilia, but it also provided a delightful surprise for motorsports enthusiasts. The legendary Linda Vaughn, also known as Miss Golden Shifter, stopped by the auction adding to the excitement surrounding the collector cars.
Be sure to purchase your tickets for Super Saturday and join us for the auction’s finale! In addition to all there is to do and see around the auction site at the convention center, the action in the auction arena itself will be electrifying, with some amazing rides set to cross the block.
