👊👊👊 Sunday August 25st Classic & Collectable Car Auction TOP 10 RESULTS 👊👊👊

By What's News

Sunday 25th of August saw the latest edition of the Burns & Co Classic & Collectable Car Auction take place.

It was great to have so many online, phone and absentee bidders as well as a very well populated bidding floor at our Melbourne facility making for an amazing day.
With 53 cars going under the hammer on Sunday, it was sure to be a brilliant day filled with opportunity. The day would soon become unforgettable with some very special cars going under the hammer early. Lot 18 saw the amazing 1980 Holden HDT VC Brock, the car that really cemented Peter Brock’s influence in the Holden story located in our Newcastle facility sell for $197,820, As the lots progressed the quality wouldn’t slow down, Lot 35 being a desirable 1990 Holden HSV VN Commodore SS Group A which sold for $175,840.
But at the end of the tunnel, the very last lot, was an UNRESERVED genuine 1988 Holden HSV VL SS Group A Walkinshaw. This car was one of the best we have ever seen, and the best one we have seen since the D’alberto auction. Being a matching number car, build no. 656 of 750 with genuine 38,759 km and with all service history and books, the team knew that this car would be at the No.1 spot of our top 10 this auction selling at a very deserving $249,473.

👊👊👊 June Classic & Collectable Car Auction TOP 10 RESULTS 👊👊👊

By What's News

Sunday 16th of June saw the latest edition of the Burns & Co Classic & Collectable Car Auction take place.

It was great to have so many online, phone and absentee bidders as well as a very well populated bidding floor at our Melbourne facility making for an amazing day.
The day got off to a bang early with the auction of Lot 7, a Genuine 1980 Holden HDT VC Brock which sold for an equal auction topping $109,900. With solid pre-bidding on this car early it took another jump again late with the confirmation of an HDT Certificate confirming it as a genuine VC Brock, before bidders duked it out on auction day.
This result was matched as the highest result of the auction when Lot 16, the stunning 1965 Pontiac Grand Prix Sports Coupe also topped the same mark settling at $109,900 when the final hammer fell. The other lot to top the $100,000 mark was the very cool blue 1971 Ford Falcon XY GT Tribute Manual which finished the day at $104,954, with the 2020 Ford Mustang R-SPEC Fastback and the 1968 Ford Falcon XT GT Manual both also getting quite close to topping that mark (both $96,162).

An Absolute Classic In Newcastle – The 1938 Chrysler Custom Imperial Town Limo

By What's News

Cars Are Rolling In For The Sunday 16th of June Burns & Co Classic & Collectable Car Auction.

!! TAKING ENTRIES NOW !!

An absolute Classic In Newcastle

In 1938, the Custom Imperial was stretched further, to a 144 inch wheelbase, and while the standard Imperials had a painted, highly polished wood-grain finish to the dashboard, those of the Custom were painted to harmonize with the upholstery.

Imperial Custom vs Custom Imperial was to be reflected years later with Imperial Crown vs Crown Imperial.
The main changes in 1938 were a side-opening hood, a horn ring on the steering wheel (replacing the dash-mounted button), moving the emergency brake, rubber-insulated steering gear, a first for any auto maker and front and rear sway bars, the only Chrysler model to have both.

The sight of this Superb 1938 Custom Imperial arriving here at our Newcastle facility was something to remember, rolling into the building in absolute grand style after driving a 200km trip from Sydney.

This era of motor vehicle manufacturing is long past us now, however we are lucky to see some absolutely beautiful examples still present and this car is one … and possibly the only one !!
