Well, I'm not so sure. I was there, and a phone bidder got the final bid.
The rumor I heard was that Mecum had previously "purchased" the Bullitt, an agreed upon value, from the owner. And then for publicity, and business, ran the car through his auction, with one of his people bidding on the phone. Interesting !!!
Does anybody know who actually owns the car now ??
