Barrett-Jackson's Scottsdale Fall Sale is Your Chance to Nab a High-Wing 2020 Corvette


From October 22-24th, Barrett-Jackson will be holding a modified version of their Scottsdale Fall Auction. To reduce the WestWorld event center’s maximum occupancy and comply with the social distancing guidelines that got BJ’s 2020 Palm Beach sale canceled, the traditionally packed venue will be limited to bidders, consignors, and their guests. There will be no general admission this time around, but if you register to bid, not only will you be able to attend enthusiast nirvana without having to deal with large crowds, you will also gain the opportunity to get your hands on lot #699, an early C8 build that left the factory with the popular, but ultimately canceled, High Wing Spoiler LPO installed by the selling dealership.

Corvettes for Sale: 1967 Corvette Convertible on Bring A Trailer

With the auction set to end Friday on Bring a Trailer, this nearly 54-year-old Sting Ray – built in November 1966 in St. Louis and now part of a Texas collection – has reached just $52,500, despite having a desirable matching-numbers 427 Tri-Power V8 engine topped by a trio of Rochester two-barrel carburetors.

You ain’t seen nothing yet. That should be the motto for the guys at FuelTech USA, who have been working hard to increase the already-impressive power of the new mid-engine Corvette.

Even though they recently managed to hit the 754 whp mark with a Torch Red Stingray and believe it already to be one of the most powerful C8s in existence so far, FuelTech says they’re far from satisfied and hope to pass 1,000 horses before it’s said and done.

We all know the memes about Mustang drivers and their penchant to lose control at the worst possible moments…and usually, there’s someone with a camera who captures the whole thing.
