What did I do today?
 

Sold my 1970 Chevelle at Barrett Jackson. It sold on Wednesday night. Lot 428.1
It just missed being on TV as they went to commercial. They came back on for a goofy race car that sold for less than mine.
Anyway, it was a great experience and lots of fun. I know there is a lot of negative stuff about BJ, but they treated me great from start to finish.

Andy,did you make anything on the sale?

I made a lot of memories:cool:

It hammered for 35K, a pretty good price in this market,

Big money for a clone.:ntwrthy:

Not bad cash in this economy. But I bet the experience just being there, was priceless.

i was going to say i watched all of B-J auction and i didnt see that car! good for you man!!

i finished cleaning my block and painted it today :) i will let it dry then clean it up with any spots i might find and then dress up the front of the motor with the water pump, alt, and crank pulley. I hope my valley pan and intake show up soon, and my trans should be here this week i hope!

A tow truck came by today and picked up my 69 SS and brought it to the paint shop. Amazingly my friend who stripped the car got both fenders and hood inside of the car. It was very interesting getting them out.

Cold here today, so I spent about 5 hours working on the photo album for the car. Did get the crank pulley done yesterday. Need to get cracking on getting the engine back in.

Got my engine al finished. I just need to prime the oiling system and drop the distributor in. Then do the cam brake in. But I have to wait till my mufflers come in later this week. My neighbors will freak if I fire that thing uncorked.
