Mecum auction

1963 Pontiac Parisienne $51,000 US. I wonder what my 64 Custom Sport Conv 327 300hp 4 speed is worth?

Get it properly appraised. Then you will know.

Appraised in 2014 at $30,000 CDN. Its more how bad I want to sell it and how strong a buyer feels about it. Not sure how well appraisals reflect the actual selling price

Thanks for the input

I was searching auction sales and this came up. $254,500 US in 2010 is about $325,000 US today.

Been watching it "online" Not the CIRCUS that B/J is!!! Car after car in matter of minutes, reserves coming off but prices are pretty steep. Lots of "low" milage stuff coming out of woodwork.

Where online are you watching it Pete?

Is it just me does the Mecum Auction seem classy and the Barrett Jackson auction seems a bit sleezy?

A bit more down to earth. Craig Jackson does look sketchy/creepy.

My friend who is selling the AC Deco truck next week at BJ called me this morning and we had breakfast together. He is as nervous as a cut cat. They have a great slot though at 2:30 on Saturday surrounded by some really nice cars. I will be watching and cheering for him. He is encouraged by the prices being paid by Mecum and the inquiries he has had regarding the truck.

Whats the AC Deco truck Jerel ?

jmont64 · Canadian Poncho Superstar!

Sorry Bob it should have been an Art Deco truck. Must have had AC Delco on my mind. Not sure if you have seen it or not, it is the one Dale Gerry built and has been at most of the interior BC shows. Black Chev cabover. I will throw a couple pictures up here shortly.

Here is a picture when we drove down to the Good Guys show in Pleasanton, California.

X2 I've been following it's build through Jerel's garage tours through the years.

Yeah it just wasn't practical enough for just heading out on short notice and going for a cruise. Dale is close to 75 and has a real good start on a hot rod now that will be a great driver for them. Will get some pictures in the spring as it will be built in his typical style. Frame was finished when I was last there.
