    Thanks for posting. Very strong prices indeed. Were you present at the auction? I would have loved to see the action on that '65 GT350!

    Yes. The 65 was an interesting one. The RM auction web site has the info. It was suppose to be the Paxton test car for the 66 model, had rear brake scoops, and triple tail lights. The 66 was a race car brought back from Europe and was from Craig Brody in South Florida. The KR was very nice from a private owner who was present Friday to answer any questions you had. With fees and taxes it would have been 240 or so.

    The history of #10 is very interesting. I helped the owner (past, I guess) create some marketing materials for the auction. I created the display board and hand-out cards. The money these cars are bringing is amazing. I was just working on my K code this afternoon and I hope I never stop driving it the way I have been enjoying it the last 10 years. I would feel better about driving my car and such if the values would stop climbing through the roof so fast (along with insurance premiums, I guess)
