Mecum Auctions concluded its 2017 sales calendar this past weekend in Kansas City, Missouri, where it sold 391 collector vehicles for a total of $8.2 million, led by a 2005 Ford GT that hammered sold for $265,000.
The Ford supercar had been driven only 3,600 miles since new. (Prices reported by Mecum do not include buyer’s fees.)
Although five of the top-10 hammer prices went to Chevrolet vehicles — four of them 1960s Corvettes — that list was topped by Fords and a Ferrari. A resto-mod 1968 Ford Mustang sold for $95,000, a 1966 Ferrari Testarossa went for $87,500 and a 1971 Mustang Boss 351 brought $75,000.
