In 2006 at BJ, many were purchased by a Ralph Wentworth for a new museum called America's Car Collection that is being built at this time in Winnemucca, NV. Dave Clellands 300G convert, the Howard Hughes Imperical convert and the Valerie Harper (Rhoda) 57 300 convert are all there along with nearly 150 others. It is scheduled to open in summer 2007.

And wasn't he buying them for a museum he was starting somewhere in Colorado ? I'm really surprised that the actions of this one guy has had such a profound effect on our car prices. IMHO, Barrett Jackson takes place in some alternative universe. Ron The person who bought the green 3 speed G was buying for a museum. He was also the guy who paid 3 or 4 million plus for (I think it was) the Willeys street rod. Another person bought and the black G convert in the BJ 2005 auction. Last year Dave Clelland's red G convert sold at a high bid of $192,000.00, and an F sold for $158,000.00, so the earlier prices don't seem that far out of line. Remember, of course, these were Barrett-Jackson prices. Your local sale would no doubt bring less..
