Not me. I only got an extra 3 dollars (after I cash in some beer cans). That's what I'm gonna use for the tickets.

Re: Dale Earnhardt 1969 Camaro to be auctioned

It's a beautiful car and all due respect to Sr.'s memory, but no way this car goes for 300k or even close!

If it goes for 100k, I'll be very surprised!

Re: Dale Earnhardt 1969 Camaro to be auctioned

I gotta tell ya', if I were a rich man, I'd be there in a heart beat to get that Camaro. And I'd settle for the street version with the 525 horsepower, all-aluminum, 427ci engine, so I could ride around town showing off in it...here kitty kitty

Re: Dale Earnhardt 1969 Camaro to be auctioned

Yup 300K seems like a lot but you never really know. It'll be interesting when we get the results of that sale.

I admit to being a Barrett-Jackson addict. Here's a video link to a video clip of a '69 Camaro which wasn't original but was converted from a six cylinder to a V-8. It went for $182K

IF the Camaro in question is factory authentic and is original, with it's Earnhardt heritage I'd be surprised if $300K isn't a mildly conservative estimate.

I'm with you Bob. I don't want it because of Dale. It's a fine lookin' ride & B&J won't touch it unless it is ABSOLUTELY perfect. 300k is not unreasonable.(If ya got it)

I'd bid on it but that would take a bit of my golfing money and I'm not sure I want to give that up for a few weeks just to have a car that is 39 years old. I can get a new 'Vette for under $90K. Why buy used ?????

Funny you should say that. Every now and then Costco advertises some cart that has a Caddy body on it. Really decked out. It's only $13-14K. I'll try to look it up sometime.
