Lyndon,

'34 RHD 6W equipped Sedan - $1,000.00
'34 RHD 6W equipped Sedan, missing body - $500.00

'35 RHD 6W equipped Eight Coupe - $7.500.00 one of only 2 known RHD '35 Eight Coupes but there were a lot of parts missing.

'35 RHD 6W equipped 120 Touring Sedan - $100.00 - Scrap value

'38 RHD TJ Richards bodied 120 Sedan - $150.00

'47 LHD Custom Super Eight Clipper Sedan - $2,400.00

'50 RHD Eight Sedan - PACA badge on bumper - $3,500.00

'51/2? RHD Sedan - $100.00 - Scrap value

'53? RHD Clipper Sedan - $150.00

'53? RHD Clipper Sedan - $100.00 - Scrap value

'55 RHD Clipper Sedan - $5,000.00) Both bought by same bidder

'55 RHD Clipper Sedan - $1,800.00)

'55 LHD Four Hundred Hardtop - $5,400.00

* 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.
