How high will the bids go ?

That cars been on the market awhile.
At Mecum Indy last May I think it hit $350K "bid goes on".
Of course being an auction we don't know if bidders ran it up that high, or if the house chandelier bid it up to that looking to get a real bidder just a little higher amount.
My guess is they are trying to get high $300s for it but is it worth that much?

they bought this car for that kind of amount , so they won't sale it for less for sure ...

[RUNCHARGER]

I'm sure they're driving it and taking the family for nice rides in the country in the meantime.

When I saw it at Mecum last May, I didn't even recognize it as the same car I'd seen at MCACN 6 months earlier.

Here it is at Mecum.  I don't have a picture of the drivers side.  However the paint and body looked near perfect.

That was a fun auction to watch, yesterday.

"badboys2" was the winning bidder. Hmmm ... "badboys2" ... "boys" and "2" ... like in plural, or two?? I wouldn't be surprised if "badboys2" wasn't the infamous Brothers Collection!!

Would be interesting to know.
I'd heard rumors a few years ago that they weren't buying any more cars.
Whatever the case, they have "people" who do their automotive related work for them, rather than buy, sell and coordinate restorations on their cars. So any screen name of someone acting as their agent would likely not be anything tied into them.
I know a shop that was doing a ground up restoration on one of their cars 5 or 6 years ago, the owner told me he never met or talked to either brother, he sent billing and received payment from their agent.  He was instructed that their car wasn't to be worked on ever on a Saturday.

Yeah, The Brothers are very enigmatic.   But they also hide in plain sight.   In 2019 I was at the Mecum Indy event checking out all of the Juliano stuff. I'm checking out Juliano's Shelby Cobra and this guy next to me makes a few comments about it. I think nothing of it and move on. Immediately afterwards this collector friend of mine walks up and asks me if I knew who was next to me checking out the Cobra?? I respond no, should I?? My friend smiles and says "that was one of The Brothers" What?? Where?? I turn around and he was long gone. True story.
