Was at the Bloomington auction Saturday and they sold a red 67 big block (L88?) w/11 or 12 miles on it for $615,000 :surprised

Yep. BLM and I talked to the owner... there is another thread here started about it.

BLM and I heard the story about the car...

- It had the engine and suspension removed after it was destined to become a drag car.

- The owner ran out of money, and put the car in a container until the 80's. It remained untouched.l

- A collector bought the car in the 80's, and then sold it to current owner for $60,000.

- The owner almost "forgot that he had" the car, so figured it was time to sell it.

- He was more interested in his WW2 aircraft hobby, and just didn't want the car anymore.
