Reply to "Most Valuable Pantera?"

Yea, I was at Barrett and saw it happen. I bid $4.1 million and it had a hammer price of $4.2 million.

People ask me why I bid on the car -- what would I do with it if I won the bid (which I really didn't bid on it, just want to get a reaction...)?

FIGHT CRIME OBVIOUSLY!!! As I tell them, I already had my mask and cape.................

It never gets old telling that story........

Also, I really doubt if the Elvis car would go anywhere near seven figures. Remember, the Green Hornet, Shelby American's double prototype that is all original, did not even break $2 million (hammer price was $1.9 million and did not sell). This was the prototype named EXP 500 that was the forerunner to the Shelby GT500 -- so for whatever reason this car did not go anywhere near $3 million; and I highly doubt that the Elvis Pantera would get to $3 million too -- at least in the current selling environment. In the future, who knows; anything is possible.
