1987 yellow formula with 1,500 miles .. bid got up to 17,500

Re: mecum results
 

Are these bids or sales?

Re: mecum results
 

The TTA was not sold. The '87s were sold.

Re: mecum results
 

Did somebody bid on the formula after it past the block? I remember watching it get to 17.5 and it just stalled which I thought was a decent price considering there's a smaller formula market of buyers vs a huge trans am crowd in the market. Looks the TTA came to a price what eBay auctions ask for, stalled at 37.5 and the reserve wasn't lifted to sell. I'm curious since the GTA did a good number how much the 88 will do when it goes down the block.

Re: mecum results
 

now it says the gta sold for 24,200 and the 87 formula sold for 18,700

Re: mecum results
 

With buyer's premium? (Fees $$$$)

Re: mecum results
 

What was the GTA listed for the other week, prior to auction?
I think it was on Craigslist or eBay. Or both.

$25k

Re: mecum results
 

wonder what the seller walks away with after he pays the entry fee , fee for running the car on saturday , fee for having a reserve and then the commision fee when he sells it ?

Re: mecum results
 

In the case of that particular GTA, it was already in FL. But if not, figure a couple grand on top of the listing fees. Buyer also pays.

Re: mecum results
 

Sweet!

Re: mecum results
 

yes this is with the buyers fees of 10% .. the 86 iroc sold for 8,000 and then with the buyers fees it was 8800

Re: mecum results
 

I love how the car is listed as an 86 but also has a 350 in it.

Re: mecum results
 

that had to be a typo .. when they ran the car across the block they said it was a 5.0 .. looked like a very nice original car

Re: mecum results
 

That's not a GTA.

Re: mecum results
 

i wonder if the buyer new it wasnt a gta .. not sure the average person would know those are not gta fenders ..

Re: mecum results
 

:yup:

Incorrect fenders, sail and fender emblem placement is "off", and no nose emblem or headlamp emblem. Wonder what else.

Re: mecum results
 

Seats... Just the way it is, I guess... Every small block is a 350. Every TPI is a Corvette engine. Every Camaro is an Iroc. Every Trans Am is a GTA or KITT. <puking smiley> Every V8 Firebird is a Formula...

85 camaro z28 tpi with 24,000 miles sold for 14,500
https://www.mecum.com/lots/FL0118-31...et-camaro-z28/

Re: mecum results
 

That's decent money for the z28. In my area you wouldn't be able to sell that car for that much. Its all about the area you live in i guess. Kissimmee area hasnt been over bearing on the selling prices like they would be at Barrett jsckson.

Re: mecum results
 

^^^ That seems way high for that car.

Re: mecum results
 

No doubt. That's a typical resto-mod thirdgen, wouldn't sell for $10k anywhere else.

Re: mecum results
 

Ugh....

Re: mecum results
 

More like a crap resto. Headlight pockets over sprayed as usual, aftermarket chrome wheels yikes. Was somebody hammered drunk when they bought that?

Re: mecum results
 

"Frame on Restoration" and "upgraded to 250hp"? Do they really know what they're talking about, since you can't do a frame "off" restoration? Also, are the mods done gonna get the car to 250? Or is that just a guess on their part?

Re: mecum results
 

High schooler's delight.

Maybe lose every part with the word wheel. And align the nose.

Re: mecum results
 

Unless there are two metallic flame red 1988 GTAs in America with less than 6K miles, and there may be, that one that sold for $17,500.00 was out of Illinois. Indeed, one day when I had a few of my cars in the driveway the guy stopped at my house with that car; turns out he lives less than half a mile from me. He told me he bought it for an "investment" but as I recall he paid more than that for it when he bought it. This was probably one or two years ago.

Re: mecum results
 

The yellow '86 finally sold. It's been on eBay a few times.

Re: mecum results

Re: mecum results
 

That was fast! Already at dealer and marked up, then erm down/up.


SAVE $4905 at $24,995! :lmao:

Good. Gives me hope I'll be able to get rid of mine at some point. :nod:

Re: mecum results
 

Whaaaat? It has the super rare LG4 HO!!! :lol:

Re: mecum results
 

Its because the owners that have sold the car have been trying to sell it as an HO which it clearly isn't. A lot of false in his ad has turned people away from it. Its a nice car, but at the end of the day its an LG4. When an owner won't correct his facts it can turn a buyer away in a hurry.

The f body cars under the tents were okay. Most were just driver quality tho, in person.

Clint Eastwood's Typhoon was sold. Neat history.
