Corvette auction action

[Peter V.]

Just saw a '65 Milano Maroon coupe, 327/300 PG car, vin #0006 delivered to Chevrolet Engineering (verified by NCRS) sell for 47K at Barrett-Jackson. I know it's a PG, but.....................

Re: Corvette auction action

After buyers 10% and sales tax's thats more like mid $50's plus transportation cost. How much does a 327 auto go for?

Re: Corvette auction action

I would think that is close to all the money for that car. Nice, but not highly desirable. I would say "well sold"

Re: Corvette auction action

Saw the car on TV, some obvious changes in the engine compartment, Valve covers and the like, difficult to actually assess originality or condition. I think the "well sold" is accurate. No mention of what the GM history entailed, could have been used for anything....
