    I'm really surprised the Chevelle wasn't bid up to close to 20k or more. These cars really took off in price & that one being so far along 4 w disc & the motor sounded great. crazy.

    I have been to 1000s of auctions both professionally and personally. I can say I have never seen things go that low or so many No Sales on such nice stuff. Its tobad I did not live nearby because that 3K truck would be hauling that 6500 motorcycle and pulling a trailer with that chevelle all the way home with a smile on my face

      @mr.goodpliers6988  23 дні тому +1

      They are considerably rare in my area. I just don't think many were sold in the first place and that translates into fewer interested buyers around here. This one was reasonably well kept, and with the rebuilt parts, sold WAY undervalued.
      If someone was paying attention, had a way to haul it, and knew a strategic location to remarket it, they could have done VERY well on it.

    People sure were talking loud. Most auctioneers would tell them to be quiet. I sold a similar condition 68 barracuda convertible like the chevelle for 8k had 10k in it. People just don’t want to pay enough for a project car. Gotta try to finish them to get the money. I knew some airplane builders who liked the aluminum v8 engines. Great auction. Hats off to the old timer mechanics.

    At one time I had a pair of square bodies in that green and white 2 tone. A Suburban and a 1/2 ton pu. The pu got sold and the Suburban was our tow vehicle for race cars and horse trailers until 1997 when we bought a light duty 2500 Ram Van which I still have with just over 100k miles.

      An auction is not retail prices it is meant to be a quick sale below wholesale prices. Most of the public watching does not realize you need to include the buyer's premium and taxes when figuring the total of an item. Take the Honda trail bike if they sold at 1750.00 with everything included it would be over 2100.00 really not much left on the bone. I see them 2200.00 to 2800.000 at the major swap meets. People watch BJ and Meecum and think all cars sell for those prices. The Big Block Chevelle without knowing the block casting numbers and it being an automatic. It should still sell 10000.00-12000.00 again you still need to add buyer's premium and taxes to the average person. The guy selling had some expectations and now can deal with the frustrations of selling privately.

    • @casualobserver620
      @casualobserver620 23 дні тому +1

      @@hawk-du1yl While this type of auction, the local people only show up, an item generally does good to sell at junk prices. However, there are auction sites where people will pay nearly, or in some cases, above retail because they have a thought process that tells them it is an auction, and it must be a bargain. One guy bids $500.00 and the next guy says "if somebody is willing to give $500.00, then I'll bid $525.00."
      Another thing about local auctions is most of the people know each other and will allow his friend to buy an item out of courtesy.
      Talking about the Chevelle, knowing who built it should explain the quality of the build, being an automatic has no bearing on the build. The guy should have provided receipts for expenses.

      Most get 30%. I think that's a pretty high number. This particular auctioneer is lower than that, but he works primarily in real estate, across Kansas and beyond. So he doesn't schedule a lot of auctions.

    Seeing a four speed in that Cutlass makes me wonder if it was the 215/215 horsepower turbocharged Jetfire V-8. A buddy had one intact @1971, most people had removed the turbocharger by then, as they required methanol to run and were hard to keep running properly. If so, that’s a rare car, especially if you can find the TC parts in the trunk

Eddie is one of the most honest people I know. Lots in the crowd considered him a friend, not just a trading partner. He mentored & encouraged me to make the parts business my career. I was gladly to hear him tell about the items
