Explore Mecum's Cars With Our Interactive Video Cam

05/15/2013

We know Velocity fans are going to love these unique camera views of select cars at Mecum Indianapolis. We've had a crew cruising around the Auction capturing the cars getting ready for their big debut. Through the special player you'll be able to manipulate your view - closer, up and down, and all around. You'll be so close you can almost smell the exhaust. 

Be sure to come back each day as the team will be loading pictures of the cars you'll see in that day's auction. You can drool over these classic and rare cars to your heart's content while you tune in to the live event. We love bringing you the ringside seat and we'd love to hear how you liked the view!

Mecum Kissimmee: The Top Ten Sellers

02/11/2013

Did you know Mecum Kissimmee was a record setting auction? It was described by Dana Mecum as the "Super Bowl" of car auctions and the more than 75,000 people who attended the event would likely agree! There was over 3,337 lots and Mecum experienced a 70% sell through. The cars were hot and went fast - and the total sales were close to $72 million.

Mecum Kissimmee: A Special Shelby

01/26/2013

The star cars keep rolling across the red carpet in Kissimmee and our cameras have been there catching it live. There’s been one special car everyone was waiting to see and it crossed the block earlier today. It’s one of those cars we just love – a garage find that had been hidden away for 28 years. We’re talking about the 1966 Ford Mustang SCCA Group 2 A/Sedan Racer. It’s number 12 of only 16 produced.

In its early history it took first place at Pan American Trans-Am, Green Valley, Texas in 1966 and first at the Continental Divide SCCA National in 1966. It was even a cover model – appearing on the December 1966 cover of Sports Car Graphic.

How it ended up hidden away for 28 years we’re not sure, but now that it’s made its grand re-entrance into the car loving society do you care to guess how much it sold for? 

This special Shelby for $400,000.

Check back with us as we post the top ten sellers when Mecum Kissimmee wraps up. In the meantime, to see the lots for Sunday, click here.
