A 1965 Dodge Deora Concept vehicle went up for auction yesterday at RM Auctions for an estimated price of $350,000-$550,000 USD. The car was first shown at the 1967 Detroit Autorama and has since gained a small but steady following. The RM Auctions website has a complete history of the car. It’s a pretty length read, but fascinating to know how this car came to be in real life.

A rare 1965 Shelby Cobra is up for auction at Mecum High Performance Auctions and could sell for up to $15 million. If the legendary sports car sells for that price, it will surpass the previous world record for the highest amount a car has ever been sold — $11 million for a Ferrari California Spyder.
The 1965 Shelby Cobra isn’t just expected to sell high because of its great looks. The car has racing history as being the first American racecar to ever beat Ferrari in the world racing championships in Europe. The car is only 1 of 6 ever made and will go on the auction block on May 15th.
Check out the wonderful pictures of the car below.
