Whew! The Drendel Collection of Turbos went for serious money. The 917/30 is rumored to have gone to a Jewish comedian for $4.4 million. Only the Parnelli failed to sell. John D. Glynn tweeted a nice blow-by-blow:

That was great. My son and I were fortunate enough to get a 5 hr personal tour of the collection with Matt a couple years ago. Grateful to have seen it. The garage under Matts fathers house was just a sight to see. Hope the cars are all off to good homes.

Does some one know where did each one ended up at the end of the day. Hope they all went to good homes.

As mentioned above, I was told that the 917/30 was purchased by Mr Seinfeld, who also purchased 935/76 (935-001?)

Tom, I found this picture of you and Hal in the "vault" but I can't remember where I saw it, must be from the same day. I always loved looking at his 934, a very cool interior in that car.
