Mecum Auctions Tim Wellborn Collection HD

[@haroc4777]

Bidders beware. I'm from Illinois so I paided extra to have Chris from Mecuon over look lot S203 a 68 camaro convertible for me. Having faith and trust in Chris and Mecum I began to ask chris questions about the camaro he said it's a clean car with a new top new interior with no rust, dent's or scratches on it and that the camaro Is immaculate. Having faith in Chris I began bidding over the phone Chris said why don't you knock it out the park and start the bidding at 30K I said no way I'll start at 10k. I felt as I was overbidding myself I ended up winning the bid for 33k Once I got the Camaro it had 2 deep scratches rust on the hood the 2 front tires were flat. The Porter had a hard time getting it off because it wouldn't start Looking under it has oil leak in the front and the rear seal. Once I got it started I was unable to go over 15 mph. The top had 2 rips on it and is very hard and difficult to put down and back up the interior looked years old with mold on the bottom of it as if it was waterlogged. The motor has a knock the trunk is full of rust no wiring for head and tail lights no wiring for the wiper motor no radio back windows are off track and don't close it's hard to open the drivers door front suspension is really bad and unsafe power steering pump is leaking the rear air shocks are blown. Long story short the cost of the camaro was $41,480 after shipping taxes and is going to need another $12,000 to get it in a safe driving condition. The way Mecum and Chris described this camaro was a total lie and completely false advertisement. I'm going to post a KZbin video of the 68 camaro. I'm also going to post on Facebook tictock and file a complaint with the Attorney General and better business burial.

They should of represented it as a Survivor car which means the Owner wants a #1 price for a car that’s a good Used #2 at best because they don’t have the cash to do a restoration. I don’t fall for that overpriced BS excuse.

When the Dodge daytona's and Plymouth super bird first came out the dealers had a hard time selling them.Some dealers even took the nose cone off hoping too entice buyers.FACT!

[@79tazman]

yeah but the road runner front end won't fit on a Superbird front end because the Superbird uses Coronet front fenders and hood

[@gregblack8550]

In the early 80s there were 2 of them in a guys side yard and had motors in them and all. He had a 4 sale sign on one for 4500 and that car sat all thru my 3 years of high school. Then about 1985 they were both gone . We knew that they were rare but people laughed at the looks.

[@79tazman]

there is nothing under the nose cone and if they did they would of had to change the fenders because they were coronet fenders that were made to fit on them cans

[@raAdams-wk4br]

I remember when they came out. They looked dumb. All of my friends thought so too, could t imagine owning one...too embarrassing I still think so. But some people will buy anything just cause it is "collectible".

[@bwtv147]

The announcer saying the motorcycle at 7:24 was a 1,652 cubic inch bike reminded me of a Harley I saw in the late 60s. Illinois had just started licensing bikes over 150 cc as motorcycles and bikes under 150cc as motor driven cycles. When filling out his registration a guy put 74 in the engine size box because he didn't notice it was asking for cc not cubic inches. He had a 1200 cc Harley with a motor driven cycle license plate.

[@ammoalamo6485]

And in 2020, or 2025? Deduct 20% or more from the value of the lowest priced of these, and 30% - 40% from the highest priced ones. These are the cars that excited us baby boomers (I know, I drove a 68 Charger, my high school friends had a Firebird 400, a Barracuda, a Challenger 440, GTX 440, a Road Runner, Duster, and too many 67-69 Mustangs Camaros Chevelles and Novas to list. But I'm 69 today, and like most baby boomers, I would be a fool to spend $200k on a car I could not drive that was losing value because its target demographic was aging out. This guy sold this collection at exactly the last moment at which he could recoup most of his expenses, and perhaps make a modest profit, depending on how cheap the cost of the restoration, storage, and upkeep. I'm pretty sure if he put that same money into other investments he could have made a lot more money, and just flown around the country admiring a wider selection of muscle cars than these. That parade of 71 Mopars actually turned me off - I only ever liked 68, 69, and a few 70 models. By 71 they were over-designed and too full of shiny bling. I didn't see a single 71 Mopar cross the stage except that purple one (I liked the color) that I would have paid ten grand for, and they were all selling for $185 - $200k or more. I hope these buyers can pawn them off on some Dubai sheiks pretty quick; they'll never miss a million here and there. Enough already, it's all water under the bridge now.

[@captjag100]

The Daytona was bought from the Otis chandler collection for much less. He made a killing!

[@craigmartin2092]

@11:50 is that the original color? What did they call that color? I've never seen such a gorgeous color scheme on a Mopar; but if I ever had the opportunity to build a resto-mod I'd match the stripes 2 the interior.

[@robertkees6048]

I think it's almost comical how much people are willing to pay for a Dodge Daytona, it's not like it's any better a car than the day it came out of the factory, it's build quality is still just marginal, missing bolts, plastic interior, the car hasn't transformed into a Rolls Royce or a Bugatti. I guess if you've got the money it's a different story, but why pay a million large for a car that was $3500 new, it's the same $3500 car, only the perception has changed, it certainly doesn't give me chills, but if I could go back in time to 1969 I'd buy a few.

In 1977 and ‘78, you could get a base L78 Pontiac 400 or a High Output W72 Pontiac 400 with the TH350 automatic transmission or the Borg Warner Super T-10 manual transmission. The correct shaker hood scoop decal for the ‘78 220hp W72 400 engine is “T/A 6.6”; the Olds 403’s said “6.6 Litre”-the 180 hp 403’s met the smog requirements for California and High Altitude states, and those cars were only available with the automatic.

I could kick myself for selling my '69 Mach 1. The plan was to get another one after I was stationed at an Air Force Base after basic and tech school and buy another one with a stick. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to find one before I got married and had a baby, and then I didn't have the money. I have a 2006 5 speed GT now that I really like now, though. It needs a new paint job, so I'm going to have it repainted like my '69. I got a 1969 hood scoop and can't wait to get it done.

Said the Nascar rep was there counting the cars rolling of the line(as they had to produce 500 1st before France would allow it to run on the track) and as they drove them by they just went around the plant and got back in line to be counted again.

I tried and tried to talk my dad into buying a blue one used for 3000 Canadian around 1974 . I told him it would be a good investment.

When everything has a ‘reserve’ on it, it is no longer a legitimate auction but simply a used car sales lot with comfy seating and food/drinks.
