Kruse Auburn MM sells for $95,000

[drwhy]

I saw a red 1963 S55 Marauder sell for $95,000. The car had a 4sp manual tranny, some special engine (I dont remember the details) and was said to be one of two so built. Kruse claimed they had never sold an S55, let alone one in this near perfect condition.

The original reserve was $150,000, but the reserved was dropped when bidding hit $90,000.

Sorry forgot my camera.

Probably a 409, i think thats what most of the S55's came with, although i believe 428 was an option to.....

Wheres our resident S55 expert?

What are you talking about, 409?, thats a chevy motor. Do you mean 406, the top dog would be the 427.

I wish our cars were 2 door...

That car looks sick - needs some bigger tires for my taste.
