Mecum Dallas Results - Nearly $30 Million Over Two Days
Mecum Dallas auction results for the final two auction days totaled $29,596,875 in published vehicle sales, including motorcycles. Friday, October 23, generated $11,888,525, followed by $17,708,350 on Saturday, October 24, based on calculations from Mecum’s published results.
Held October 21–24 at Dickies Arena in Fort Worth, Mecum Dallas 2026 brought collector cars, classic muscle and modern supercars to the same auction stage. An award-winning 1963 Corvette led Friday, while a somewhat low-mileage Ford GT Heritage Edition commanded $1,677,500 on Saturday.

Friday's Five Most Expensive Cars
Lot F132, a 1963 Chevrolet Corvette Split Window Coupe, topped Friday’s Mecum Dallas results at $297,000. Its frame-off custom build by Doug Rippie Motorsports featured an SRIII tube chassis, LS3 6.2L V8, individual-throttle-body injection, 4L80E automatic, C6 suspension and Wilwood brakes.
The car won awards from the 2023 Pacific Grove Concours Auto Rally and 2025 Goodguys North Carolina Nationals. The 1963 Sting Ray introduced the production Corvette coupe and independent rear suspension. Its split rear window lasted just one model year, giving this extensively modernized car an especially recognizable foundation.
The black-over-red 1962 Chevrolet Bel Air Custom Bubble Top, Lot F160, sold for $214,500. An Art Morrison chassis, fuel-injected 502-cubic-inch big-block, Tremec manual transmission, coilovers and Wilwood brakes distinguished the build.
Its cataloged show history included a 2013 Shades of the Past Top 25 selection and multiple 2014 Goodguys Builder’s Choice awards, although the physical awards were excluded. The 1962 Bel Air retained the bubble-top roof after the Impala adopted a more formal design, combining a distinctive period silhouette with this example’s substantial custom engineering.
Lot F100, a Lime Green Metallic 1968 Shelby GT500 Fastback, brought $154,000. Mecum cataloged it as one of 420 GT500s equipped with factory air conditioning and one of 1,020 GT500 fastbacks produced for 1968, with Saddle upholstery, an automatic transmission and an original date-coded spare.
The engine description deserves some extra attention: Mecum listed a 428 Cobra Jet, but offered the car as a GT500 – not a GT500 KR – and did not claim a matching-numbers engine. Because the Cobra Jet-powered KR also appeared in 1968, buyers assessing Shelby GT500 auction prices should distinguish this catalog description from documented factory KR identity.
The 1969 Dodge Super Bee A12 Hardtop, Lot F109, sold for $151,250. Mecum described the Hemi Orange car as highly original, with a matching-numbers 440/390-hp Six Pack V8, matching-numbers four-speed, original black interior and Dana 60 rear axle with 4.10 gears.
Introduced during the 1969 model year, the A12 package combined three two-barrel carburetors with a lift-off fiberglass hood and street-and-strip intent. Mecum identified this example as one of 826 hardtops with the Six Pack/four-speed combination, citing the A12 registry; that specification and the cataloged originality provided important context for its six-figure price.
Lot F128, a restored 1969 Shelby GT500 Fastback, achieved $140,250. The Royal Maroon-over-white car featured a 428 Cobra Jet and automatic transmission; Mecum described it as one of 83 imported into Canada and delivered new to Dominion Motors in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan.
A Marti Report, original build sheet, order-sheet copy and Shelby Registry history supported its provenance. The extensively restyled 1969 GT500 represented the final basic design of the original Shelby Mustang run, with unsold examples carried into 1970 – historical context that complements this car’s restoration and documentation.
Saturday's Five Most Expensive Cars
The 2006 Ford GT Heritage Edition, Lot S214.1, led Saturday’s collector car auction results at $1,677,500. Mecum cataloged just 588 miles, a supercharged 5.4L, 550-hp V8 and six-speed manual, alongside BBS forged wheels, a McIntosh stereo, window sticker, delivery hang tag, manuals and two keys.
One of 343 Heritage Editions, its blue-and-orange livery recalled the Gulf-sponsored GT40’s 1968 and 1969 Le Mans victories. That racing connection, limited production and exceptionally low displayed mileage supplied a compelling collector specification, rather than simply another example of Ford’s mid-engine supercar.
The 2026 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1X Stars & Steel Edition Coupe, Lot S180, brought $550,000. Mecum described it as one of 25 ZR1X Stars & Steel cars and one of four in Arctic White, with 793 miles, ZTK equipment, carbon-fiber aero and wheels, Santorini Blue upholstery and full-body paint-protection film.
Stars & Steel commemorated America’s 250th anniversary, with 250 examples across the Corvette range – not 250 ZR1Xs alone. The first-year ZR1X combined a twin-turbo V8 with a front electric motor for 1,250 hp, adding landmark performance to the limited-edition appeal behind this Corvette ZR1X auction result.
Lot S239, a 2027 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1X 3LZ Convertible, sold for $495,000. The Roswell Green Metallic example showed only three miles and featured ZTK suspension, carbon-fiber aero and a visible-carbon retractable hardtop.
Mecum advertised a National Corvette Museum-verified one-of-one configuration as of August 7, 2026 – not a guarantee that no later car would share its specification. Its 1,250-hp hybrid powertrain came with an important sale qualification: a manufacturer-imposed resale restriction meant no factory warranty would accompany the car.
The 2021 Ferrari F8 Spider, Lot S164.1, achieved $478,500. Its red-over-tan specification included a 710-hp twin-turbocharged 3.9L V8, seven-speed dual-clutch transmission, retractable hardtop, suspension lift, parking camera, Scuderia shields and carbon-fiber trim, with 17,122 miles displayed.
The F8 Spider evolved the 488 Spider with increased performance, improved aerodynamics and vehicle-control technology derived partly from the 488 Pista. Unlike Saturday’s barely driven Ford and Porsche, this Ferrari’s appeal centered on its open-top performance and equipment rather than exceptionally low mileage.
The Ultraviolet 2016 Porsche 911 GT3 RS, Lot S99.1, brought $429,000, with just 28 miles shown. Mecum listed carbon-fiber bucket seats, front-axle lift, rear-wheel steering, center-lock wheels, a magnesium roof, carbon-fiber hood and engine lid, books and two keys.
The 991.1-generation GT3 RS paired a naturally aspirated 4.0L, 500-hp flat-six with a PDK dual-clutch transmission; no manual was offered. Track-focused engineering, a distinctive factory color and its exceptionally low odometer reading helped distinguish this Mecum Dallas 2026 top seller.
