Live auctions are on hold but online auctions are pulling a mixed bag of results. Here are some of the highlights

1991 Nissan Skyline R32 GT-R

Sold: $91,000
Shannons

This jet silver Skyline GT-R, is the 17th of 100 imported by Nissan Australia and ironically the vendor and fourth owner is the former Holden Motorsport
Manager. It has been in the one family for 21 years and travelled 169,676km since new. It’s sporting a few small dings, kerbed factory alloys, the paint is
worn off the exterior mirrors and is chipped in places adding to its history. The interior could do with a freshen up. But most importantly it has been looked
after mechanically, with receipts to show, along with the owners-manual.

1969 Meyers Manx Beach Buggy

Sold: $35,000
Shannons

The Brainchild of Californian Bruce Meyers it shortened a Beetle floorpan to make a high-riding off-roader, using VW mechanicals. This one has a certified
