Market commentary
Half of the price brought here could get you a very good Vette of the same vintage without the 40th A nniversary badges and with a few more miles, so this shows the premium for light use and special editions. It was offered by Mecum at Chicago in October and Austin in December with high bids of $23,000 and $20,000 respectively so the seller did will to hold on until Ft. Lauderdale, notwithstanding the expenses of entry fees and hauling it around; there was money and it was time to take it.
