Re: steve McQueens 52 on Mecum
The guy that bought the truck is a dealer from Tucson HiSpeed and looks like he paid a lot less, I wonder why it went so cheep?

Re: steve McQueens 52 on Mecum
I remembered the previous sale being close to 100K. Ebay started at 50K and 42 bids later it sold, McQueen hype. Looks like someone thought they could flip it and make a little more or break even based on the ebay bidding. Mecum probably would not take the truck with a super high reserve so the guy rolled the dice and left 60K on the table. McQueen estate were the winners in this deal. If you watch Mecum on Thursdays and Friday there are lots of good cars that cost a lot a few years ago going cheap. 69 440 6 pack Charger with 4 speed, original matching numbers for 30K is one example I remember. Sunday night similar ones were going for 3x.
