I couldnt save a pic, but a black and red 65 short fleet hammered down at 104 thousand at barrett jackson last night!
maybe our trucks might be worth something now

**ChiefRocka** · 01-24-2010, 10:13 AM

I watched it last night, but missed that one.....DAYM !!!!

jchav62 · 01-24-2010, 02:29 PM

Wow!!

C10-Driver · 01-24-2010, 02:41 PM

Wow... Nice truck.

198plus · 01-24-2010, 04:33 PM

Wow there is hope........I'm feeling better

Nice Truck !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

monolith · 01-24-2010, 05:59 PM

So THAT'S why all of the old trucks on craigslist jumped from $800. to $15000. overnight.

VA72C10 · 01-24-2010, 06:22 PM

Wow, beautiful truck but still surprised (pleasantly) that it went for that much!!!

wing_runner · 01-24-2010, 07:52 PM

Here's the link to the build...

muddpile · 01-24-2010, 08:46 PM

WOW! I'm not gonna lie, it's a nice truck, REALLY nice, but for some reason all I want to do is a big dirty burnout in it

Maybe that's why I own so much primer...

protrash64 · 01-24-2010, 08:48 PM

I could have built 10 to 15 of them for that price!!!

Dinos63 · 01-24-2010, 09:00 PM

Thats is a sic truck!! Wonder what it cost to build

61TWUK · 01-24-2010, 09:08 PM

yea its sure prutty

msgross · 01-24-2010, 09:16 PM

that was owned by Richard Childress, the NASCAR guy, and had a custom chassis too...

The bid was $94K so with the 10% fee it came to $104K.

ruffrida2005 · 01-24-2010, 09:33 PM

I wonder how long it took to block sand it that good.

ol Curt · 01-24-2010, 09:42 PM

That was a great sale, but that is not your run of the mill truck...racing chassis and you KNOW that motor is bad ass!

198plus · 01-28-2010, 01:17 AM

I talked to Jimmy Smith today from Street Customs and Restorations that restored the truck....Really nice guy.... He told me they had 3500 hours in this restoration at a cost of 144,000 dollars plus.....He also stated that the truck went on floor for auction two hours later than scheduled that probably kept it from getting on bigger money....After about 30 mins on the phone with him explaining everything this truck has, I'm convinced this is probably one of the nicest 65's you could ever find

Also sent him detailed pics yesterday of my truck to get a price......To my surprise it wasn't that bad.......12,000 dollars to finish all body work and Black paint show ready.......Anyone got an extra 12,000 dollars I can have

jonzcustomshop · 01-28-2010, 09:07 AM

you could tell that a ton of 100K+ restorations were going for 50K- at this years auction...
that guy, barrett, or jackson, I don't know which one he was, I think he only smiled a couple times during the whole auction, a couple years ago he looked like the joker he was so excited...
ths would have been the year to buy.

*lakeroadster* · 01-28-2010, 03:07 PM

Sweet truck but I gotta admit I don't get it?

Wouldn't everybody rather have (5) really nice $20K trucks instead of (1) waaay over the top one for $100K?

Oops, I forgot.... it was built for Richard Childress. Know it makes sense, he has more money than God.

It's all good, right?

jonzcustomshop · 01-28-2010, 06:10 PM

I would like to be the bodyshop that gets paid 144k to build it...

jgh64pkup · 01-28-2010, 06:25 PM

wow that is a freakin nice truck

198plus · 01-28-2010, 08:34 PM

They are doing a mid sixties Chevy van for Richard Childress now......Wonder how much he'll sink into that......Probably wanting to go back in time to his Hippie days
