<VV> Mecum auction

[Gary Swiatowy]

Don't know about the car at the Mecum auction.
But I just watched a 68 Corvair 500 go for auction for $1700, in my area.
Car had a re-paint, and a crease down the driver's side front to rear. Radio
delete, dry rotted bias tires, complete A.I.R. system, and supposedly 49,000
miles. Body was sculpted out of bond though from what I could tell, and saw
evidence of bondo in the drivers side door hinge support.
Personally I thought that one went for 3 times what it was worth.
The car at Mecum may have been of similar condition.
You never know...........

I'm watching live on the computer at the moment.  Some of you know Frank 
Regal - actually he is now a CORSA board member.

He has a GTO #F306 going up for bid soon.  Interestingly, the view I have 
shows a Corvair Coupe on the side (Lot F1) - saying High Bid $1,700.  It 
looks good in pictures.  What's THAT all about?
