We went up Friday to spend all day drooling over things we cant have. From the cars, to the vendors, to the food selection and the people watching, its a great time. This is my 10th year attending and I don't think we will ever stop going. Weather was in the low 70s, absolutely perfect.
1,611 cars sold totalling more than $130 million in sales. $92 million in sales Saturday alone. The Ron Pratte Collection accounted for $40mil in sales.
Top 10:
• 1966 Shelby Cobra 427 Super Snake (Lot #2509) – $5.1 million
• 1950 GM Futurliner Parade of Progress Tour Bus (Lot #2501) – $4 million
• 1954 Pontiac Bonneville Special Motorama Concept Car (Lot #2500) – $3.3 million
• 1949 Talbot-Lago T-26 Grand Sport Franay (Lot #5087) – $1.65 million
