Saturday's are probably one of the most boring days when it comes to Japanese auctions, most of the high end cars are sold off during the week and many buyers take Saturday's off.
However this was not your average Saturday. A 1971 Hakosuka KPGC10 GT-R wen't up for auction at HAA Kobe, the same auction house I bought my 1993 R32 GT-R from. I actually landed up watching this auction live and pegged my price(In my head) at $36,000 due to it being listed as an R (Rebuilt panels) and having 53,000km but I was surprised with the price it landed up being sold for.
