Once in a lifetime auction - Page 4

From the video I saw, these cars may be new, but look like they will take a lot of money and work to get back on the road. You can bet the exhaust system is completely rusted. I hope I'm wrong, but at an auction the prices could get driven higher than the car is worth if it was in number one condition.

The building looked very small. I looked at the listing of cars the auction house listed, and noticed about 500 cars. Lambercht Chevrolet could not have had that many cars stored in that small building... Anyone know where all the cars came from, other dealers, ETC...

If any good cars are there, collectors will be there in force running up the price to the level of being way over priced. But I would love to be there to see for myself.

All I see is a lot of low mileage "parts cars" . Didn't really see any sought after collectible cars in the bunch. 63-65 Impalas are not that desirable, at least not the ones I saw on the video.

Ok guys lots of pic are up on the website. Most of the stuff looks rough. Tom

It looks like most of the cars were kept outside for long periods of time. The '69 Chevelle was the best car, but had heavy roof damage. It looks like they have a lot of parts cars and some rebuilders. What a shame the cars were not kept in a building! Many cars with parts missing. Do you really think these cars will be in that much of a demand?

New info I will try to post some pics of the cars that they are dragging out of the trees and lining up. It my understanding that most motel rooms are filled up within a 50 miles. Parking for the sale will be a real problem, you will have to park up to a mile away with trollies taking you to and from the site. The golf course is right next door and will offer some parking and will be serving meals and drinks if you need courage to bid. Tom
