I think most states in Australia have deemed that any car over 25 years old doesn't require conversion to RHD. Having said that, it does make life a bit easier... but as for adding / subtracting from value, in a car of this age I don't think it would make too much difference out here.

At an Australian auction I would think it would command a premium. Maybe I'm wrong.

Maybe it failed to sell because the owner thought it was worth more than the market will bare. $70,000 to $100,000 is a little much for this car especially since it was a older restoration with paint blistering. <!-- s:oops: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_redface.gif" alt=":oops:" title="Embarassed" /><!-- s:oops: -->

I wouldn't call it ugly... but I don't see me driving a vehicle with "dusty pink" interior. Although if someone were to give it to me, I may drive it.

So, when is it being delivered to Laotto, Indiana? Can I have a ride?

Beautiful example of this Big 8 Auburn. Another early Auburn for Ray Parker's collection. Especially with those rare Artillery Wheels.

It's not quite Scottsdale territory, but I thought some members might be interested in this upcoming auction...
