Barrett-Jackson concluded their three day collector car auction in Palm Beach this weekend and based on auction totals, the Corvettes did pretty well. Over the weekend, we counted 48 Corvettes and 1 corvette-powered boat that sold at the no-reserve auction. Total sales of Corvettes reached $2.9 million.
Six Corvettes sold for more than $100,000 with the auction’s overall top seller being the first retail 2011 Corvette Z06 Carbon which sold for $297,000 to NASCAR’s Rick Hendrick. Second on the top selling Corvette list was the $165,000 that was paid for a red 1967 Corvette Coupe powered by the L71 427/435 hp tripower. A 1959 Corvette Resto-mod was third with a sale price of $132,000.
We saw eight 1966 Corvettes cross the block on Saturday and the pricing on these cars is pretty interesting. The average small block (3 total) went for $55,733 while the 5 big blocks averaged $79,200.
The C4 ZR-1s also saw heavy action as six crossed the block. We already told you about the the 1990 Corvette ZR-1 which sold for the low price $18,150. On the flip side, a 1994 Corvette ZR-1 changed hands for $38,500. The sales average for the C4 ZR-1s was $29,241.
And finally, a couple other Corvettes to highlight include the 2007 Jay Leno Show Car which sold for $44,000, the 1999 Avelate Custom Corvette sold for $29,700 and a documented and highly optioned 1965 327/250 hp Convertible with factory air which sold for $102,300.
