1958 Vintage Speedster goes through Barrett-Jackson

I have an Ivory Vintage with way WAY less miles for way WAY WAY less $$$$.  It only has a 1600cc motor, but it sure doesn't feel like any 1600 I've had in the past.  Contact me if you're interested in knowing more.

A blue Beck sold tonight for $35000.00...........Bruce

Barrett-Jackson Palm Beach 2019 auction on 04/12/19 Lot #368.1 SOLD at No Reserve a 1958 VS with "less than 2,350 original miles" @ $41,800. The Speedie (VIN 118374582) titled as a '68 VW, was touted as custom painted in "Cream Brule" (I always thought it was Creme Brulee, but whatta I know?), with a 1915cc, a "388 4-speed manual" tranny, front discs, headlight grilles, and the other normal VS accoutrements. By the way, BJ always lists the Speedies as "Porsche Speedster Re-creations." 

Gentlemen (OK...and Ladies): The price of our Toys is certainly going up...up...up!

It's actually Crème Brûlée but the car is beige 

Actually, there was a Blue Beck and a Beige Vintage that were sold on BJ.  The Vintage car had 2,986 miles on it and had a 1915cc motor.  It was an older build judging by the door panel pockets.

Here is the video.  I had to chop in two to meet the size requirements.

When your body is an "older build," it's always nice to see you can bring the bigger bucks - also with respect to your speedie, too!
