The “Eleanor” Hero Car from Gone in 60 Seconds sold for $1 million at Dana Mecum’s 26th Original Spring Classic — a result that stunned auction regulars watching bids climb in real time. See what made this 1967 Mustang worth seven figures, and how it stacks up against the biggest movie car sales in history.
Held every May on the Indiana State Fairgrounds the week before the Indy 500, Dana Mecum’s Original Spring Classic has grown into one of the largest muscle car auctions in the country. Its 30th anniversary sale set a then-record $55.6 million across 1,208 cars sold, headlined by a $1.45 million Porsche and a Vault Find Corvette that drew a moment of silence for its late owner. Less than a decade later, the same event was moving over three times that much money.
