I'm close to Auburn, so we go to the Auburn auction every year. It's amazing to see vehicles of that caliber and the prices they go for. The exotics are obscenely overpriced, but I only say that because I cannot afford them, yet I see SO MANY classics thatare basically stolen from their owners.

I know the Barrett Jackson is a bit higher scale but it's all amazing none-the-less.

Supposed to be a car from Spokane (two hours from me) that is estimated to be purchased at half a million by itself.

I was watching some of the auto auctions a while ago on the Speed Channel there and I wish I was there ... HEMI cars, classic Corvettes ... all literally making the owners cry because they were being sold for three times less than the amount they put into them.

work for me but here the info

1954 OLDSMOBILE F-88 GM CONCEPT CAR

LOT #992 - NO RESERVE

2005 BJCCA CCA

SOLD FOR $3,240,000

OPTIONS

COLOR - GOLD

TRANS - HYDRO

CYLINDERS - 8

ENGINE SIZE - 324

HORSEPOWER - 250

VIN - E54S003701

The XP-20 project, commonly known as F-88 was a pet project of Harley Earl (working with him was Bill Mitchell, Ken Pickering, Zora Duntov etc.). Four cars came out of the project, but only styling order #2265 (this car) survived. It was sold or given to E.L. Cord (Auburn-Cord-Duesenberg owner) in 1955. Hundreds of internal GM documents and original blue prints are still with this sole survivor
