    This car just crossed the block at Mecum's auction in Florida. It has only 11 miles and has never been titled. The bidding reached $34,000, but that did not meet the reserve.

    I'm not the biggest fan of the triple yellow color combination, but it is a beautiful car. I wonder what the seller wants for it.

    Looks beautiful - but you cannot drive such a car. The value is that it is a 40 year old new car.

    I had a good friend that had a ‘78 Seville in the triple yellow. It was like being in a tub of butter. I loved that car!
