David Hawkins Posted October 20, 2008 Report Share Posted October 20, 2008 '70 stang #816. Grabber blue. Moved the battery to the trunk. $187K. The week could have been worse. Now is the T-bird that I thought was on before the JFK car, coming up. #817 McCulloch (sp) is Paxton Superchargers. Talk about a Mustang/Shelby heritage. $145K. This was another "work of art" car. Wasn't the Grabber Blue Mustang a BOSS 429?????? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
07SGT4578 Posted October 20, 2008 Report Share Posted October 20, 2008 Yes, the grabber blue car is a BOSS-9. She sure was pretty. I sure wished we would have seen SAI buying the MG, I think it would've looked great in the museum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I sure wished we would have seen SAI buying the MG, I think it would've looked great in the museum. My wife said that Ron Pratt never batted an eye when he nodded up the MG. I wouldn't want to play poker with him. There is no "tell". This time he picked up some good deals. I would like to get a photo op with the Supersnake Cobra.

Torch40 Posted October 20, 2008 Report Share Posted October 20, 2008 What's with the Ron Pratt blinkey bid style? Who was the slicked back hair muscle guy on stage the whole time? He never bid on squat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sudden Posted October 21, 2008 Report Share Posted October 21, 2008 All in all, most cars were well bought. A better way to put it was that the sellers" took it in the Shorts" with this econmy. Just a polite way of saying it on T.V. SUDDEN. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shelbymotorsports Posted October 21, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 21, 2008 There were at least three B-J Shelby GT's at Vegas. The first one was displayed by a local Ford dealer at the hotels entrance. The second one was the one up for bidding in the auction and the third was the B-J slot machine grand prize. Below are some pics including the pic of me winning $40 on the B-J slot machine by getting three Challengers. I took that as a sign and walked away. I would have loved to have won the BY Shelby but I knew that just wasn't in my future. Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you know if anyone actually won it? Do you have any idea of the CSM number of the auction car? During the auction several of them mentioned they have the cars. Going from memory after listening to a rerun while I was burning a DVD from the Dish Network box: Amy Lassiter(? - bidders assistant) said she drives hers - a whopping 2000 miles (mine now has 3800). Spanky the auctioneer said he hasn't driven his. Steve Davis said he has two (I think he got one from Carroll, as did Amy and Spanky, so I think he must have bought one). Craig Jackson is the 4th of Carroll's set. I think Amy and Steve said they had 'verts too. I wish I could have been there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

twobjshelbys Posted October 21, 2008 Report Share Posted October 21, 2008 Tony, the auction car was CSM 2209 Roger Anyone know who the buyer was? I don't think they were even shown. The bidding went to $150K in one huge jump and that was the end. Maybe he/she will become a member here! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
