Checked in at Barrett Jackson, finally.

dirwin · Jan 15, 2010

After driving for 18.5 hours straight and getting here last night, got her checked in and detailed before she found her place under Tent 3.

The white one is nice, I don't look for it to bring rain, but it is nice. The stocker hasn't shown up yet, I hope it is really nice. There is some seriously nice vehicles here and if a ride is "average", it's going to stand out BAD.

While I'm not having second thoughts about selling it, I did take a ton of pictures of her today. Oh Well, I have a 71 in the shop that is just waiting to see what this one does.

Nice looking 67. I'll might have to get out to BJ and take a look before it finds a new home.

I sent a PM on another matter also.

AGShelby · Jan 15, 2010

Good Luck

I was out there 4 years ago. At that time - there were quite a few average cars - but they looked good on TV. They didn't bring big dollars (more than they would on regular sales, but not crazy) - just really didn't fit into the rest of the show. Sounds like the quality may have improved - as it should for all of the publicity they get.

Hope you make big $$ - that is a sharp truck and it's good to see a Bronco at this venue.

That is a nice looking truck. Good Luck

dirwin · Jan 16, 2010

Thanks, I to hope it does well.

Kevin, pm sent, no problem.

There are still quite a few "average" cars as well. This is the first year I have been out here. After watching it on TV all these years and as big of a pain in the butt it was to get my Bronco consigned, you would have thought that it was only the absolute best of the best. There is actually some turds mixed in as well. I don't know why they gave me so much trouble about the Bronco, it is easy in the top third of what is here. I guess EB's just aren't the show car "elite's" cup of tea. Too bad, they sure do get a lot of positive comments.

I have not been there in person since '04.
Thought it would be nice to make it this year and see how things are in person again. Then I started looking at ticket prices. OUCH! Maybe I should just get the cable TV hooked up again...

Bronco looks good. If I figured out the Barret Jackson site then I guess this will be on the block on Sunday.

As with a lot of vehicles it really depends on what a buyer wants. Broncos are not like some of the big $$ cars as few are rare and few are stock. All the big $$ cars are big dollar for a reason because they have a pedigree and are usually in excellant condition. Probably why they gave grief on the bronco no real pedigree or big performance back ground.
Still you have a nice looking bronco I hope you get what you want out of it.

looks great!!
but what's up with the hood on the drivers side? Hood just not completely seated?
And the rear window handle looks like it's upside down...

David, best of luck on the sell. Your EB is without a doubt the nicest I've ever seen. I was blown away the first time I saw it. Of course any build you have done is always been top-notch. Hopefully you will get what you want out of it. I sure hate to see it leave Tyler though.

Keep an eye on the PIF Mustang for us while you're there. Hopefully it will bring a good number for ETCC. The lot no. is 1542, so it will go across just before your EB does.

Both of those Broncos are beautiful. I hope they go to good owners.
