Steve Isola, our Duluth, Minn., “Weathered Wheels” chaser, got a big kick out of this recently spotted rust bucket. “You might find this hard to believe, but this 1964 Chevrolet C10 is this guy’s daily driver in Duluth,” he reports. “He’s had it many years and lives not far up the highway from me. When he drives by, the engine sounds just fine and the exhaust is moderately quiet. Would this qualify as a ‘rat rod’ or a ‘survivor?’”

WALWORTH, Wis. – Mecum Auctions closed out 2018 December 6-8 in Kansas City, Missouri, achieving overall sales totals of $8.7 million. Individual sales were topped by a rare black 2006 Ford GT with just 870 miles that brought $308,000.

As an auction noted for its annual delivery of a diverse and varied lineup, this year’s event produced a surprisingly focused top 10 sales list. Seven of the top 10 sales were Chevrolets and four of those were Corvettes. It was two resto modded Camaros, however, that followed the Ford GT in top dollars achieved, with a 1967 model selling for $77,000 and a 1969 bringing $74,250. Others to appear in the top 10 included a pickup truck, a Bentley and a Cobra Replica, demonstrating that despite Chevrolet’s top 10 takeover, variety was indeed still on tap.
