These SD cars were at Old Brock before Mecum?
Were they still part of the Medeiros collection then?

Turns out my friend knew about them , and has seen most of them in person - but not all of them.

Reportedly the owner was the kind of guy who always wanted more than actual value on anything he would sell.
So it's being pondered that he may have passed away.

72 Blue 4spd is said to be pretty good #s car (previously not for sale)
But can see in the pictures both fenders and spoiler ends are later model.
Likely other things will be too.

The Red 74 purported 18k miles , he didn't get to see it.

Blue 74 is said to be kind of junky. (he actually said PoS ?)
The other two 74s ho-hum driver types

White 73 TA scored 975 of 1000 at MCACN and is all that.
6 years ago he wanted 130k USD for it. (seems reasonably fair to me)
120k USD for Florentine Formula (also seems somewhat fair)
His problem with the White car was the Canadian Dollar conversion at the time.
Along with 13% sales tax whatever fee ,,,,, would have put him close to 200k Canadian on it.
Brock was pricing cars in USD

He did not see the Yellow 73 Formula 455
The auction estimate seems about ridiculous to me on that car.

My friend in TX sold his 74 SD yesterday .

Rock solid TX native car , completely #s front to back.(honest #s , not speculated)
Fresh frame off
Blue with Buckskin Deluxe , Auto AC etc....
Sold at right under 90
It only went to 70 at Houston Mecum ( damn ? )

These no reserve 74s will probably bid decent by speculators and sight unseen participants.
More guys can afford lesser priced cars.

I don't recall when or how I came across the Old Brock website, but it was a long time ago (maybe ten+ years?) I check the site periodically and I know a lot of the cars listed there have been advertised for quite some time.

They don't list prices, but I called on the Florentine Formula about five years ago (probably longer) and they quoted me 99K for the car. About a year ago a friend was looking for an SD car so I called again and they quoted me 135K. I did not clarify if that was Canadian or US.

FYI, I think its the came car on both the Old Brock website and the Mecum Auction site, but on the Mecum site it states the car was delivered to Turnpike Pontiac in Westport CT, while the Old Brock website states that car was delivered to Pat Clark Pontiac in Las Vegas, NV.

A lot of 62-63 SD cars at Indy also.
Going to be one helluva show.

Lots of SD's going!


The most of the SD Birds are going tomorrow.

Definitely going to be interesting to see what these are going to bid at with most of them going NR. I looked at them and all appear as “Drivers” I guess you would call it? Some rust issues on one of the 73’s. Most of them from “The Medeiros Collection”.
