Expert Posts: 1886 | Yup, I'm going to try and fly down for inspection on the 20th. I'm traveling all before and after that. I can't be there on auction day as I'm doing a big charity event in Chicago on auction day. | ||

I can't be there on auction day as I'm doing a big charity event in Chicago on auction day. Hey Mike, what have you got your eye on?? Can you have a look at the E for me? If it is OK, grab it for me and I will organise payment and shipping to Australia. I wish, The E is one of my dream cars, as is the boat tail 31 Packard and the 32 Dual window Imperial. Good luck Mike, I hope you find something worth keeping. Good luck with the Charity event too. Steve. | ||

Expert Posts: 1886 | I just posted 100 pictures on Facebook forward look group. I would advise to bid VERY cautiously unless you've inspected these cars. A lot of them were VERY rough. | ||

Regular Posts: 93 | Early bidding has started. They have some pretty restrictive terms on the auction, plus 13% buyers premium if you bid from the internet. https://www.proxibid.com/asp/catalog.asp?aid=135811&ipp=100&sort=0 | ||

Regular Posts: 93 | 300L 4-speed got $12.5k. 300H convertible $58k. 300E $27k. The system glitched out so I don't know how much the nice silver L, 55 300C, or the G convertible sold for. Seemed like Proxibid was down for the 1st 40 cars. Prices seemed high to me. | ||

Expert Posts: 4043 Location: Connecticut | The 300E and G did not sell. Same with the C300. Prices do seem high, but also include buyer's premium to make them look inflated. 1957-8 Ply wagons went for a lot. A few good projects: The 55 Belvedere convert went for 1700. 57 Dodge Spectator wagon sold for 5200. Ron | ||

Expert 5K+ Posts: 5006 | how much was the 60 Dodge convert project? | ||
Mike McCandless |
| ||
Expert Posts: 1886 | The G convertible went for 102, not counting fee's. ALL the cars sold. I was surprised how high some of the prices were, having seen the cars. I think the G was bought well, but still needed attention for a car that has been sitting for awhile. The hydraulics were leaking on the ground from the top when I was there. Who knows how long that has been going on. Nothing serious, but still stuff to mess with. The polara convertible went for 8k if I recall. | ||

Elite Veteran Posts: 690 Location: BELTSVILLE, MARYLAND 20705 | The Auction was a great time. Southern hospitality was very nice. Everyone was very pleasant . The parking was great . no problems. Food outside was two food trucks, usual stuff hamburger and fries ( $10.00) for a really nice burger. You got two drink tickets with your registration and the bar was busy. It started at 11 and was over at 3:30.The Forward look cars were well represented. Some were really nice and some weren't. I thought all the cars went way to high. The 61 g went to Florida along with the high wheeler Packard. It was a 1920 something.The Polara convert went to Tennessee to a good home, Edited by matador440 2017-12-03 8:07 PM | ||

Expert Posts: 4043 Location: Connecticut | Mike McCandless - 2017-12-03 8:13 AM The G convertible went for 102, not counting fee's. ALL the cars sold. Proxibid is still listing a number of cars as Passed - This car was not sold. Maybe the site needs to be updated ? Ron | ||

Expert Posts: 1886 | I was on the phone bidding on the G, it sold. Proxy had a 20 minute period where it went down and that data wasn't recorded online, but the cars were absolutely sold | ||

Expert Posts: 3889 Location: Northen Virginia | maybe too much advertisement if the car went too high. Or they probably were just purchased by the end of the rainbow owners not re-sellers. | ||

Elite Veteran Posts: 612 Location: Kingston Springs , TN | I also attended the auction; all the cars sold. They did halt the auction at one point for about 15 minutes due to Proxybid issues.... | ||
