You should be able to find the car here: IMCDb.org: Home page

Big time auctions of this sort are more about being able to show who has more $ than anything else.

I see if going just over market due to movie tie in unless 2 guys are battling over how has more $ regardless of what they are bidding on.

lets see, im guessing 3 to 5k for the car.

+5k for the Patrick Swayze ownership
+5k for the roadhouse link for people who have seen roadhouse
+5k for the family guy reference to road house that sparked fresh interest in the movie roadhouse

so my guess is 18 to 25k

My friend goes to almost all the mecums, I go to some. I won't be at Anaheim but if he is, its worth $5k to me for the laughs. Either it'll bring $30k or it won't hit the reserve at like $3k

Wow, only $7000 for the car. Hard to tell from the photos, but it looked kind of rough. Scraped bumper, cracked dash, bad wood.

  • Two cars were used in the movie
  • One of the movie cars ran through a fence, flipped over and exploded into flames
  • This 560SEC is the other car used in the movie
Glad they pointed that last bit out. ^
