Re: Mecum Auction C/K 1500 Big Money
Cool truck!
In terms of value, I would have thought the LS, lift/tires, and roof visor would have taken away from the value. I see it says sold but don't see the sold price?

Re: Mecum Auction C/K 1500 Big Money
I watched that one ratchet up $10G at a time. I've been watching the auction for a couple hours. It may be among the highest $ vehicles, if not the highest, since I've been watching. Interesting that it's listed as a '69, has '69/70 CST badging but sports a 71/72 grille. Looks to be a nice truck.

Re: Mecum Auction C/K 1500 Big Money
It's funny how we don't cut dashes and keep it stock for value, when something like this hits the auction. KaPow, mind blown.

Re: Mecum Auction C/K 1500 Big Money
There was a SWB 2wd Cheyenne in that same color scheme that sold on Mecum a while back for big $$ too. It was posted here as well and the vin came back as a suburban

Re: Mecum Auction C/K 1500 Big Money
It will go for big money if your VIN shows it as a 4x4 short wide.

Re: Mecum Auction C/K 1500 Big Money
Oh snap, and that's why I was thinking it was $$$ in the first place... it's not a rare shortie K10 at all... hope the buyer knows that...

Re: Mecum Auction C/K 1500 Big Money
I'm the one always on these threads defending what people will pay for a vehicle or part at auction, but I can't defend this one unless there's a lot of stuff I don't know about it.
I won't specifically pick on a truck because the owner may well show up here one day, so let's just say the price is more than I would have paid for that level of build.

Re: Mecum Auction C/K 1500 Big Money
All it takes to bring big at auction is two bidders who want it.

Re: Mecum Auction C/K 1500 Big Money
Dont believe that BS ...even for a moment.
There were scams going on way back in the 90's and it still goes on today. You put your junker up for auction and have your friend bid the price up to a previously agreed value. and Boom your toad is now doubled tripled or what ever in value You get the prestige of having go across the block, so its documented, plus you've dramatically increased its value. and all it cost is the auction entry fee. The car never really changes hands, or if it does its only to document a paper trail. It all but ruined the corvette market and for what, to placate some weasle wick stool who's ego and one upmanship is wrapped up in his junker. They serve alcohol at these events so what does that tell you. But then there is that one mentally ill person who pops up out of nowhere and throws stoopit cash out the window. Severe Obsessive compulsive disorder can manefest itself in many ways. Also, some Body shops who want to build a reputation for doing hotrods and custom cars will put a vehicle through an auction so they too can generate bragging rights. its a different market than the one we are all interested in here on this board. so we cannot fathom. Think of Donald Trump and the realestate market only not real estate but cars(trucks). No disrespect to Mr. Trump as president. auctions are just like any other used car venue. Stoopit money And somebody mentioned Bare it and Jack 'em. They were the worst offenders knowingly allowing these scams to go on. They benifitted too because of the fees they earned but more so the prestige and bragging rights of being allowed to claim that cars bring the big money at thier auctions. Nope. once these vehicles get caught up in the auction frenzie, its essentially over. Its no longer about the car. The car gets pimped out by the predators in the market Its a parts truck with an Earl Shribe paint job. Stoopit people and stoopit money. anywhere else and it would not even be a trailer queen. Bid with confidence! Last edited by mike16; 05-23-2017 at 03:00 PM. |
