Don't complain about your car payment

The Barrett-Jackson Auction had a huge day yesterday, with 5 cars breaking the magical $1 million number.

First to do so was Ray Allen's 1970 LS6 Convertible Chevelle, a car with a brilliant pedigree, and only 61 miles on the odometer. ($1, 242,000).
The car that was anticipated as the top bid earner came to block just a short time later, but the 1954 Pontiac Bonneville Special Motorama Concept Car matched, but did not exceed the record set last year by the F88 Concept.
The 1952 Chrysler D'Elegance 2-door Hardtop followed at a solid $1,188,000. (This car seems vaguely similar to the Bentley Continental GT)....and yes, it does have a Hemi
The bank was broken by the 1950 GENERAL MOTORS FUTURLINER PARADE OF PROGRESS TOUR BUS, which sold of an astounding $4,320,000.
The spending flurry did not end there, but continued just two lots later when $2,160,000 was paid for this prime 1970 Hemi Cuda, wrapped up with with one final member of the million dollar club, this 1953 Corvette, which was number 3 off the assembly line that year, and sold for $1,080,000. (My father once owned #8….obviously, he did not keep it and pass it on to me)
