Restored like new a few years ago by Ray Allen and Chip Gerst and no longer fresh but no more than a thorough detailing away from like new again.

Market commentary

Yes, this is the LS6 Chevelle that sold for $1,242,000 at Barrett-Jackson in 2006. The seller here was the buyer there and as the estimate indicates was prepared for a major hurting. It probably wasn't expected to hurt quite this much, however. The buyer got a beautifully restored and thoroughly documented car with exceptional history for a very reasonable price by any standard, but to be very clear, this isn't a failure of the market today, it was irrational exuberance in 2006. Very exuberant.
