Also, are you at this show? Or were these photos sent to you? If you happen to be at the show, I'd love it if you could take some pictures of this Camaro for me http://www.barrett-jackson.com/application/search/carlist_Details.aspx?&In_LotNumber=1547

Year 1997
CarMake CALLAWAY
CarModel C7R
CarStyle GT1 ENDURANCE RACE CAR
ExteriorColor SILVER
Interiorcolor BLACK ALCANTARA TRIM

Summary Aluminum, dry sump V8 with a X-trac 6-speed sequential transaxle, carbon fiber monocoque. Sold on a "bill of sale only".
Description The first complete Callaway automobile, the Callaway C7R is a full monocoque carbon fiber front mid-engined, rear transaxle design. It is powered by a 383cid all-aluminum V8 with electronically-controlled port fuel injection making some 640hp breathing through the FIA-regulated air restrictors, this Callaway C7R led its class in the 1997 Rolex 24 Hours of Daytona; subsequent rules changes precluded it from further FIA GT and Le Mans competition. Freshened at the Callaway Competition factory following Daytona, it is "on the button" and comes with spare nose and tail bodywork. Created by Paul Deutschman, the Callaway C7R's flat bottom design generates downforce at speed greater than the weight of the car. Its handling and aerodynamic performance delighted its drivers at Daytona: Ron Fellows, Johnny Unser, Boris Said and Enrico Bertaggia. Only two Callaway C7R's were built; the other is in the private collection of Callaway founder Reeves Callaway. ***SOLD ON BILL SALE ONLY***

Chris, You always get to go to all the cool places. I need a job like yours, or is it a job?

 

[ctr2]

is the c7r up for sale now , if so i didn't see it on their site

 

[Brangeta]

I didn't see the C7R for sale either. Or any other Callaways. The only Corvette of any interest I saw was one with the Shinoda bodykit.

 

[TurboLuigi]

It is not listed as a Chevrolet Corvette.... its under Car Make: Callaway

Anyhow, it is lot # 687



Enjoy and Good Luck!

-Luigi
:cool

 

[Brangeta]

I think you're looking at the wrong year somehow Luigi, 687 for 2008 is a red '67 Camaro RS/SS. :confused

 

[TurboLuigi]

OOPS!.... :duh My error.... Good catch Brangeta. That is the old record from the 2004 Auction. If I would have see the Sledgehammer, C12, and SuperSpeedster also listed it would NOT have fooled me. And here I thought it might be on the block again.

CTR2, sorry I got your hopes up.

Paul, I will have already headed for home by Thurs eve., sorry

Jonstr will be there on Thurs. I spoke with him on the auction as well.

The Callaway Cars display is straight out the back of the big tent about 100 yards - Go out the doors where they bring the cars IN to the BIGGEST of the series of tents and you will see it. It is right beside the Mothers wax 18 wheeler.

 

[Brangeta]

Anybody know what times and channels the auction comes on? I believe it is aired on Speed TV (which I do not have) but was curious whether it will be aired on something like ESPN Classic perhaps.

 

[John H. Christensen]

NO SPEED TV!!!!!!!!
THAT'S ALL I EVER WATCH!!!!!!
