Market commentary
The restoration of this Olds is nothing short of a lesson in how to do it right, and its known history from new is equally impressive. But its colors are the thing that set it apart from others: rare, subtle and very attractive. Sold at Barrett Jackson Scottsdale earlier this year for $84,700 and a no sale at Mecums Indiapolis auction in May at $87,500, it was a little out of character here at the Pebble Beach Auction and the bidder who took it home for this price did very well indeed.
