IT'S ABOUT "THE EXPERIENCE"

Wellborn Muscle Car Museum's 1971 "Plum Crazy" Dodge Hemi Charger R/T Sold During the Mecum Auction |
Prior to today's Mecum Auction in Florida, Pam Wellborn was asked if any of the 24 classic cars from the Wellborn Muscle Car Museum was her favorite. Those who know Pam, acknowledge purple is her favorite color, so when she cited the "Plum Crazy" Dodge Hemi Charger R/T, it came as no big shock to most.

1971 "Jamaica Blue" Dodge Hemi Charger R/T - Still Part Of The Wellborn Collection |
As things turned out for Pam, she is able to return to the Museum in Alexander City, AL with the Jamaica Blue Charger still part of the family.
When first failing to meet their defined Reserve Price, Pam was "encouraged" to release the car from reserve and let it cross the block. Mecum should have known better - this car was going home to Alabama...
You did well, Pam - your dedication to classic muscle cars and your favorite MOPAR classic in particular was inspiring.
Drive in good health ~
