Do you know who bought it ?Wonder if the Brother's Collection bought it ?

That would be my guess too. They already have nine, why not go for an even ten?

The Brothers always make me think of the movie Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid ... you know how those guys are trailing them and Butch and Sundance are always saying "who ARE those guys?" That's how it is for me with the enigmatic Brothers - who are those guys? Whoever they are ... they sure got some deeeeeeeeeeep pockets!

Impressive numbers for very specific cars.

Seems as though you step out of bounds in regards to certain dates and features and you don't get the money you want.

Green AAR actually sold for $75,000 + 10% buyers fee = $82,500.  Nice chunk of change!

Is Mecum's buyers premium 10% now?  They charged 8% last year.  It was 6% when I bought my '71 at a Mecum auction in 2010.  Add in sales tax, transportation, etc. and it's getting darn expensive to buy a car at auction now and the hammer price is just the start of the expenses! :22yikes:

I read on another site the GTX vert was an ex race car missing FT, original engine, etc.
Haven't heard any talk about Barrett Jackson this year, I guess they have become a side show fading off the radar screen in the Mopar world.
