The one-off auction of cars and contents from the National Holden Motor Museum in Echuca has been declared a resounding success. Burns & Co. Auctions conducted the sale, which saw more than 1,200 lots offered, all of which sold. A 100 per cent clearance rate from any auction is a rarity these days, but it reflects the passion of both Holden enthusiasts and devotees of Australian motoring history generally.
As reported by JUST CARS ahead of the auction, the sale was conducted over two days, with engineering items, engines, parts, memorabilia and collectables, as well as the general museum contents auctioned on Saturday, 18 May, while the cars in the museum’s collection, plus those brought along by others, were offered on Sunday, 19 May.
