My guess, it will not meet it's reserve and not sell.

Too bad it's not a "recreation" they seem to bring the big bucks.

I say $81,500 and that is probably low but if the rich mooks with way more money than smarts get bidding (and drunk) and that sheister with the shades makes a plea for bids and they get Tom Wopat to sing and dance (hey it's an orange Mopar) and Amy to hold the biggers hand it might go for a million plus.

Let's see.... so far guesses of....

$99,000
low $100,000's
$110,000
$115,500
$118,000
$120,000
$150,000
$175,00
and $225,000

Well it's not a Factory Altered so it may depend on two Wealthy old Gentlemen bidding against each other trying to impress their Trophy Wives! That was a mean spirited statement to make wasn't it, I feel really bad about that.

I know it's not a factory supplied car as only 6 hardtops were done by/for Chrysler, so one of those would be "extremely" rare. Yet it was a factory backed car built in Detroit using the templates/spec sheet supplied by Chrysler. Still no offense taken (how could I?) as your 100% right in your accesment of some of the bidders with the T-wives. Yet that may be more on "sporty" type cars that the gals actually would like. Not this one. So, this car even though kinda cool, may sell lower than I guessed ($175.000).

Now who's else is gonna post there "selling price" guess?

There were actually 12 - 2 door hardtop altered wheelbase Factory built cars.

I was only counting Plymouths since this is a Plymouth. Counting Plymouth & Dodges I believe you are correct.

OK, got it. Stahl and I put our heads together once and came up with the list & some History of the 12 Factory AWB cars. The car in question only brought $75,000 at BJ Saturday night, that was a shame, hard to believe there wasn't some collector there willing to pay more!

I thought that car was a steal

The Silver Dollar Willys didn't bring big bucks either

Re: So at Barrett-Jackson...

you arent going to see the big money at the BJ auctions like you saw in 05-09, what did the silver dollah willeys go for ?

Re: So at Barrett-Jackson...

It wasn't one of the 12 Factory AWB cars handed out to the chosen Dozen but it was still a steal. It was a good thing I wasn't there or I might have done something real stupid or at least made the buyer pay more!

It didn't stay around long on the block

Re: So at Barrett-Jackson...

It seems all the cars they had big, splashy coverage on didn't bring big numbers.

Also, anyone else notice the ton more ads this year and a lot less cars seen on the block? BOOOOOOO!!!
