Barrett Jackson has what they call "Salon cars", a group of reserve cars. They were numbered 5000 lot. Everything else was no reserve. Consigners can drop the reserve if they wish to off the car, generate some more interest or the bidding is close enough to the reserve. What was strange to me was on a few occasions Craig and Steve announed they do not know what the reserve is, but was heard saying " the bidding is very close to the reserve". hhhhmmm?? The other funny thing, Steve was out in the bidder field bidding on Clark Gables mercedes... Without a bidders pass..... As far as the fantasy bids, that is not related to Barrett. Just a game Haggerty insurance sponsors for speed channel. All in all, another entertaining year.

I think he was looking for that 1.8m for it. I think Mr. Jackson was hoping it was worth more IMVHO..How do you place a value on such a unique car? Test the market by seeing what is bid. I thought 1m would by it in my very humble opinion. I missed the blue 67. That is a strong price, thank you for listing those. Alot of those shelbys were good buys. Congrats to the new owners. Hope the softer prices are not a continuing trend

the tribute car, green hornet and for what it was, Mr. Beckers 500 were beautiful cars. I was really pulling for Beckers car, hope he is satisfied. I think the EXP was about right, given how the crowd was a little thrifty this year. I thought for sure Mr Pratt would have bought it. Some surprises this year.
