I was at Mecham's Auction Saturday until the last car ran. When we first arrived the High point car was nearing auction, 917-30 Can Am car, what a beast. It sold for over 5 million. A real nice Blue 289 sold at $600K. It was exciting to see and feel the electric atmosphere. Bumped into an had a short chat with Barry Wyse from the Tv series Storage Wars, What a charachter he is. A lot of cars didn't reach reserve and rolled off unsold. in the last hour or so there were 3 gorgeous Can Am cars, an Orange McLaren, Black Shadow and a Red Lola (I think?) in addition to the 917 Porsche. One or more of them didn't make reserve either.
