Market commentary

Consignment 4111. This Olds has eyeball appeal, big time eyeball appeal. The restoration is impossible to fault but the bidders must hae been asleep when it crossed the block. It sold for $70,200 at Bonhams Scottsdale auction in 2012 and was not over priced in that transaction and why it failed to bring more here in Newport Beach can only be attributed to the bidders lack of attention.
