Microbus, sold for $217,800
« on: July 28, 2011, 06:00:21 pm »

At Barrett-Jackson?s recent Orange County, California auctions, a 1964 Rolls-Royce Silver Cloud III James Young sedan went for $159,500, a 2005 Ford GT sold for $165,000 and a 1970 Dodge Hemi Challenger cleared $215,600. Topping them all, and every other car for the weekend: a 1963 Volkswagen Samba Microbus, sold for $217,800 inclusive of bidder?s fee. LINK

That's amazing.  I love to watch Barrett Jackson, they have some really unusual vehicles.
