Mecum Chicago Auction Oct 5-7
Just a note for Chicago area folks--the annual Mecum Chicago Auction will be held Thursday through Saturday Oct 4-7 at the Schaumburg convention center // 1551 Thoreau Dr N // Schaumburg, IL I noticed only one ZR-1, a red/red '90 with 325 miles on it. Listed at No reserve so could be interesting. I may go one day as a spectator, with hands firmly planted in pockets. --Bob

Re: Mecum Chicago Auction Oct 5-7
Got home from work late last night and turned on the TV and saw there was a mecum auction......I'm guessing it was an earlier auction from this year.....They had a 79 anniversary Trans Am cross the block with 800 or so miles on it.......I believe it was a bid goes on at 57,000 if I remember correctly, I was dozing in and out...
Be interesting to see what that low mileage Z will bring in...If its anything less than 30K that would be a disaster.. |

Plenty of pictures on the Mecum site. The link posted by LGAFF takes you to them or you can just find the car on the mecum website by going to Friday offerings.--Bob

Re: Mecum Chicago Auction Oct 5-7
Anyone care to speculate on the final price? Figure with such low miles and showroom condition, the car should bring a nice amount......
I'm hoping for 50K.........Realistically,I would say 37K....... |

Re: Mecum Chicago Auction Oct 5-7
This is a No Reserve auction.
I'll guess $31K --- due to the extremely low miles. Lot F156, Chicago 2017, Oct 5-7 1990 Chevrolet Corvette ZR-1 Red/Red
