BAT closest recent completed auction
to the OP’s car I could find:

@ https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1967-pontiac-gto-191/





Too late now, but Mecum is not the venue
to get the best price for his car in my opinion.

Very surprised that car brought the money that it did.

I hyped that Montreux Blue 67 just a little.
It was a carbon copy of the I Dream of Jeannie / Major Nelson 67 GTO Vert.
Plus it was an HO , and a very nice car.
Just the wrong wheels on it


There hasn't been a TriPower GTO Convertible Survivor in the same category of Tedds car on BaT since I have been following the site the last few years.

There was a Red 67 GTO Hardtop Automatic 335hp Survivor in same category on there about 2 years ago. It went for a pretty good price in the 40s or low 50s

Hey Barron … wanted to give you some feed back from today. Friday seems to be quieter than normal ,
It’s extremely hot ! I’ve learned a few things about Mecum …. Number one… YOU CANT use the word survivor in any of your descriptions and they will NOT
Use the word either .. apparently there’s a patten or copy write on the term.. you also can’t say never been offered for sale because they can’t prove that!
It is very well run and the people are friendly.
My car is under a tent. There experts looked at the car and came up with the reserve which actually was more than I thought it would be . They also did a few minute clip on the car . Car should run around 3pm and to keep this in one response the the gentleman commenting on my stupid wiper blades and antenna!!
I never represented this as a show car ! Sorry you’re upset but how’s your 60 yr old paint job interior and drivetrain looking ?? Thank you again Barron for your advice through the process ! Posting a couple of Mecum location pics..

Hard decision to let go of the GTO by your family member I expect.

Good luck with the sale.

[Tedd930]

It is .. honestly, the car is super cool but south Florida no AC no power steering. I drove the car today and I thought I was gonna die.!!! Not to mention, it’s a size of a school bus!! He’s in his 80s now and could use the money! But it really is a super cool time capsule I stopped and showed a local collector. He was super impressed. Took lots of photos…

[fyrffytr1]

Very nice car. I hope it does well. Might make me think about selling my 67 GTO vert with A/C, PS th400 auto.

[Tedd930]

Thank you will see ?? By the way I didn’t mention the
Car has almost 80,000 miles . Not bad over almost 60
Yrs!

[johns]

Very nice car. Good luck with the sale!

Is it being sold at auction with a reserve ?
If so, how did you arrive at a reserve price ?

Don’t worry, they will pressure him to lower the reserve during the auction….

They have the Mecum rule and can and will lift the reserve.

I wish the guy the best.

[tom s]

Be very careful!I have seen them end auctions early for a shill bidder,also seen them build up the price with the same.You can also see phantom bids.Hope you have a reserve.Tom
