Wellborn Hemi Daytona

[Ghoste]

I wonder what Tim will buy now?

[daytonalo]

Probably nothing since he has health issues . Anyone know what this car sold for in the past ?

He bought another B5 '71 Hemi Charger a few weeks ago.

I think he will be buying. Maybe a more diverse collection. Maybe some more of the early max wedge cars? Early Hemi cars? Who knows.

[Ghoste]

Yes, I thought the herd thinning was to obtain some other things for the museum.

    I don't know about what motivated the sale but I do know taste in things can  change over time, its just evolution at work.

I think coming from the W museum, the Gibson restoration, and the color affected the price.

I liked Jack McGaughey, I met him, and he did some work for me.

I do not believe he ever got making the sides of cones exact. I believe from what he told me that he used 2 piece sides to adjust the size.

If this car did not come from the W museum, I would see it selling for considerably less.

Good for Tim for getting the price he did.

Troy, I think you should be thrilled your car wasn't GYC restored.

I was thinking about Tim yesterday and wondered if he was going to start collecting some more exotic cars?

[moparfan]

the moon buggy with a hemi !!!!! that's exotic.

[Ghoste]

Long trip to go get it though.

Long trip to go get it though.

That's only IF it's actually on the moon.

I think who was selling had more to do with price than anything.

I personally would never had guessed this car to darn near break 7 figures

[TheAutoArchaeologist]

OH YES... he is definitely buying.... you should see the list he has of stuff he wants.  It's nuts.

    ,   thanks TC  & Dave (sixpack registry ),  

I am surprised the white 500 didn't get to 200K.

Agree.  

yes I thought it was odd ,   seemed a low price for a HEMI C500  ,   don't mean any offence to the ford / mercury  Fans if your watching    
   two cars after the C500 on Friday  was   $195,000  for a  302 cougar    

[Y1CHARGER]

They only made a couple Boss 302 cougars.  Pretty Rare.

[Ghoste]

A few more than a couple I think, weren't there like 200 in 69 and almost 500 of them in 70?  Still crazy rare though.

[maxwellwedge]

I think they only made a small handful (2 maybe?) of Boss 429 Cougars......Those are Uber rare

The $900.000 Hemi Daytona.Was $4000.00 in 1974 PA newspaper

I think Kevin Greene (the Sack Machine) sold it to Tim for 7 and change during the peak. Kevin used to park it at Walmart and it would get dinged up.....Roger had to fix it a couple of times and told Kevin to stop parking it at malls....Lol

[Aero426]

Did someone say park at the mall? 

[maxwellwedge]

Haha!
Nice car.....

[Aero426]

Haha!
Nice car.....

You know it. 

Sorry, couldn't resist.   

[hemi68charger]

You'd always be able to find that car..........
