Muscle Car Auctions
Muscle car auctions are a popular venue today for car enthusiasts everywhere. Like muscle car shows,
these auctions give people a chance to view the cars of the past. A bit
of appreciation can even be gained in regards to the amount of effort
it takes to maintain or restore these classic cars.
The Mecum Auction Company
is one notable company responsible for a number of muscle car auctions
each year. Mecum, which has held auctions annually for 22 years, holds
multiple auctions each year in places like Indianapolis, Indiana and
Des Moines, Iowa. The Original Spring Classic Auction held May 13-17 in
2009 boasted some incredibly rare muscle cars, and exceptional sales.
The highest sale was for a Ford muscle car,
a 1966 Shelby 427 S/C Cobra Roadster CSX 3034, which sold for a
whopping $1,165,000. Two other Shelby Cobras were in the top 10 in
highest sales for this auction. Overall, sales of muscle cars and other
classic cars reached over $40 million dollars for that auction.
Another
option for muscle car auctions today is eBay. Companies like Hot Rod
Auctions buy classic and muscle cars and auction them on eBay Motors
for a small fee. Shopping eBay Motors is also a good idea for those
looking to directly purchase from an auctioneer. A simple search on
this site could return results for a 1967 Pontiac GTO.
There
are many more options available for individuals looking to buy an
auctioned muscle car. Muscle and classic cars are usually present in
most car auctions, like the Barret-Jackson Classic Car Auction.
