Welcome, ladies and gentlemen, to the exhilarating world of Meim Auctions Indie Fall Special, where the Indiana State Fairgrounds becomes a battleground for automotive enthusiasts. In this electrifying event, we witness a parade of remarkable machines that will leave you breathless.
Among the stars of the show is a modified 1968 Cornet RT, boasting a rebuilt fuel-injected 440 cubic inch engine that roars with power. This beast of a car, with its big Dana 60 rear end and Willwood disc brakes, commands attention and just sold for a staggering $112,500. And let's not forget the eye-catching 2014 McLaren MP4-12C, a beautiful example in orange metallic, powered by a formidable 3.8L V8 engine with twin turbochargers, delivering a mind-blowing 592 horsepower. This piece of automotive art was snatched up for a mere $22,500.
But the excitement doesn't stop there. We have a 2009 Viper ACR, a true American Club Racer, with a monstrous 600 horsepower 8.4L V10 engine. This manual transmission beast with only 360 miles on the clock fetched a cool $112,500. And how about the 2020 Dodge Challenger Black Ghost? This modern-day muscle car pays homage to its iconic predecessors, packing a punch with its 6.2L Hellcat engine, delivering a jaw-dropping 707 horsepower. With only 5,050 miles on the odometer, this black beauty found a new home for $130,000.
Moving on to the exotic side of things, we have the 2013 Ferrari 458 Spider, the epitome of Italian elegance and performance. Adorned in the classic Rosso Corsa color, this V8 mid-engine marvel, equipped with an F1 automated sequential gearbox, seduced its new owner for $135,000. And let's not forget the Charger King Daytona, a true king of the road. With its powerful 6.2L Hellcat engine and distinctive Go Mango color, this beastly machine commanded a princely sum of $142,500.
But the pièce de résistance of the auction was the 1967 Shelby GT500, a true legend in the automotive world. With its 428 cubic inch engine and two four-barrel carburetors, this first-year big block Shelby was a sight to behold. Restored to perfection, this blue beauty captivated the crowd and fetched an impressive $250,000.
And there you have it, folks, a whirlwind tour of the Meim Auctions Indie Fall Special. A showcase of power, beauty, and automotive excellence that left us all in awe. Until next time, keep your engines revving and the rubber burning.
