Auction results from the fall Kruse auction

[Tom Bryant]

The fall auction in Auburn IN, the worlds largest collecter car auction, saw around 5000 collector cars registered for sale. This equated into a nice selection of Corvettes for sale. Here are the results with personal comments on the cars I had the opportunity to examine. Cars marked as final bid did not reach the reserve and did not sell. Also go to the C1, C2, C3, C4, C5, ZO6 and Other Cars forums for results on these models respectively.

Bargain

ZR1 lot 3349 was a really cool car. Had a large ZR1 logo on the quarters and just looked mean. It was a runner-up to the '66 I chose as my pick of the sale. Has to be one of the hottest ZR1s around. Condition was outstanding too.

Picture

Jay,
This is a lousy picture. They had a better one in the sale ad. I didn't feel like dragging my big 35mm bag around and so I didn't take any pics. I just got a digital Saturday so now I'll have no excuse.
