* Star of the event was the '28 Studebaker President Roadster which with very spirited bidding, including a number of phone bidders, hammered at $40,400.00. For our US friends our dollar is only worth 2/3rds of a US dollar at present. So for the $500 '34, thats about US$335.
The scapper bid $100.00 on each of the rusty wrecks and if he was outbid by somebody with $150.00 he didn't bid again.
Couple of photos of the two '34's squezed into the space of one for the trip to Adelaide, about 750 miles.
I'm writing a story for the club magazine about the event, so won't share any more at this time.
