Auctions America’s September auction at Auburn include a decent amount of eighties vehicles. I’ll concentrate on the 1980s cars and trucks that actually sold (remember that this is not an all no reserve auction—a black 1983 Excalibur Series IV phaeton with a black interior was a no sale bid up to $42,500) and add some of my opinions.
Thursday:
- 1981 stainless steel DeLorean DMC-12 coupe with a gray interior and 13,000 miles—$19,000 hammer price for a car that doesn’t look a nice as the miles would indicate
