Ashley, Anton and Riley are making the trip across the border to SA for this event and you can catch up with the Burns & Co team at our Partner Stall at the Finish Festival at the National Motor Museum in Birdwood. So come along and say hi as we are looking forward to seeing lots of faces both new and old!

Is this the best example of a VL SS Group A Plus Pack in Australia?

By What's News

If it isn’t it has to be right up there!!!

Known for their rarity and collectability, especially the Plus Pack models, its racing pedigree, and its iconic status as Peter Brock’s last HDT car. The 1986 Holden VL Commodore SS Group had only 500 examples made and only 173 of those came out with the ‘Plus Packs’ making these cars are a true Aussie collector piece.

One for the collectors.

This Genuine 1986 Holden VL Commodore SS Group A Plus Pack is an exceptional example and it’s  hard to fault. Build number 279 out of 500 it comes with the Plus Pack option, the Polarizer, a manual 5 speed transmission, the original books, compendium, build sheet, and it has a miserly 61,900 Kms on the clock. And to top it all off, it’s condition is A1. We think that this could possibly be the best example in Australia! This one really needs to be seen to be believed.

The car presents near new and is very original. It features immaculate original Acrylic paint with only the front and rear bumpers and side skirts being repainted many years ago. This car was sent to John Sheppard (ex HDT Manager) by the first owner and had the engine stroked to a 344ci and camshaft fitted.

If condition is important then you don’t want to let this one pass you by.

October Muscle, Classic & Collectable Car & Motorcycle Auction – RESULTS RECAP

By What's News

What an auction this October edition was, with over 106 lots, massive bidding interest and a clearance rate over 90%, it was huge!

The October edition of the Muscle, Classic & Collectable Car & Motorcycle Auction wrapped up this week over three massively successful nights! With 106 desirable lots on display between our two headquarters in Bayswater Victoria and Beresfield NSW, there was a lot of anticipation as this catalogue oozed quality, and it showed, with a final clearance rate achieved of over 90%!

Night one of this massive auction kicked off on October 7th and had an Aussie theme to it, with a large number of highly collectable Holden and Ford vehicles going under the hammer. Night two showcased some of the best muscle and classic vehicles on offer produced outside of Australia, with many classic American, European and Japanese cars and bikes going under the hammer. It proved to be a very popular night with some tremendous results being recorded, and with a number of floor bidders going home with a new prized car or bike! The third and final night put the exclamation point on this very successful auction, with every lot on the final day selling at good prices!

The car that had everyone’s attention on Night 1 was the UNRESERVED 1972 Holden HQ Monaro GTS 308 5.0 Litre V8 Coupe. Painted in the terrific Chateau Mauve and with only 15,050 genuine miles, it sold at a deservedly big price at $232,438, the highest price of the entire 3 night auction! Coming second on the night after selling post auction was the fully engineered 1970 Holden HG Monaro Coupe LS3 Supercharged, which sold for an impressive $230,790! Rounding out the top 3 on the night was one of Holden’s more recent muscle vehicles, the 2017 Holden HSV GTS-R Maloo Utility LSA Manual which sold for a princely $164,850!

Night 2 proved to be a big night for cars and bikes with the legendary and instantly recognisable 1966 Ford GT40 Tribute Manual being the top seller on night, reaching a final price of $129,132. The second best-selling car on the night, the 1959 Cadillac 62 Series V8 Automatic Coupe garnered a crowd of interested floor bidders, at the fall of the hammer, the car was able to reach the final selling price of 108,801. Amongst the bikes, it was the 1928 Harley Davidson J Model that ended up being the top seller, with the highly desirable motorcycle reaching a final overall price of $35,325, a fantastic achievement!

The auction came to a full close on Night 3, with all 26 lots featuring on the final night selling, meaning a massive 100% clearance rate on the final night to a close out an absolutely fantastic overall auction!

Burns & Co would like to offer a huge thank you to our vendors, staff and bidders for making this sale a success, and most importantly for choosing Burns & Co. You can scroll through the images to see the TOP 10 RESULTS of this jampacked auction!
