[Recon]

I haven’t been but I’ve seen some cars from both Barrett Jackson and Mecum. Friend of my father’s bought a car (70 Roadrunner 440-6 4 speed) from BJ and it was an absolute turd. Ran like crap but the paint and interior were in excellent shape. Then I’ve seen a couple cars from Mecum and they were some really sweet rides. Last local show I was at there was a car (65 Fury Sport 426 Max Wedge 4 speed) from Mecum and it looked like perfection in terms of restoration quality. I’m not really a big fan of that body style. Then one of my local farming juggernaut families bought a 57 Corvette with 8 or 9K original miles out of Mr. Mecum’s personal collection. That car was drop dead gorgeous.
Generally there’s one day that the real high end cars will come across the auction. Most of the time they will tell everyone when that is.
I’m not sure what you’ll see that’s worth buying for 10k if you’re looking for a car.


Pick your poison.
