Mecum’s Collector Car Auction wrapped up their 23rd Annual Spring Classic in Indianapolis on Sunday. Over the five day sale, we witnessed 194 Corvettes crossing the auction block with 128 of those cars selling. Sales for Corvettes totaled $6,720,550 and the sales success rate was 66%.
The high sale for the auction goes to the 1963 Harley Earl Corvette that fetched $925,000. GM had presented the unique 1 of 1 Corvette to the former head of GM Style and father of the Corvette as a retirement gift. Second on the list is the 1966 Bergen Johnson Corvette racecar. Nicknamed “Eight Ball”, the Corvette has a storied racing history. Restored by Kevin MacKay, the Corvette sold for $305,000. Rounding out the top 3 was a 1967 Convertible that has just 17,800 original, documented miles. Selling for $225,000, this unrestored, unmolested Survivor is powered by the L71 427/435 Tri Power V8 and features awards and certificates from Bloomington, the NCRS and is a Triple Crown Award winner.
Other Corvettes of notable interest include a 1968 Corvette L88 Coupe which sold for $150,000, a 1972 Corvette Convertible with an LT1 350/255 hp and factory air sold for $106,000, and a 1967 COPO Convertible powered by 427/400hp and coupled to an automatic transmission sold for $130,000.
