00:00All right, it's almost go time. It's the 1970 Chevy Nova SS 396. That's featured at HotRod.com. You might have saw the video that I posted about it with Chris Jacobs and a little walk around.
00:15I'm feverishly checking this car out now. Perspective buyers are looking real, real, real hard at this thing because, again, it is a pretty unique car in that you had to order this and really know what you were doing when you ordered it because it's got an engine package that wasn't shown as being available for the car.
00:37It's not a central office production order. It's not a copo car. So this thing is kind of special. It's got a bench seat in it and not buckets. It's got a two-spoke steering wheel and not the three-spoke. So it's kind of a different Nova. And it all comes together by way of checking the right boxes on an order form. So it's about to be auctioned off here in Mecham, Indy.
01:07We're along for the ride.
01:15No reserve on these cars. No reserve option.
01:1770,000.
01:21$70,000.
01:37110, 110, 120, 120, 120, 120, 130, 120, 115, 20, 115, 120, I have 115, 120 in the year!
01:53So 115,000!
