Top 10 Mustangs sold at Barrett Jackson Scottsdale 2018

Barrett-Jackson is the world’s largest collector car auction. This auction always brings a wide range of rare / collector cars but we are always most interested in the Mustangs! There was a diverse selection of Mustangs being auctioned off. Some were low mileage, bone stock, highly modified, resto-mods or immaculately maintained. Some Foxbody Mustangs crossed the block for a ridiculously high price we didn’t expect them to reach. We think it’s safe to say, Foxbody fever is at a all time high! The most notable Mustang to cross the block was the first production Bullitt! Continue reading below to see our list of the top 10 (technically it’s 11 because there was a tie) highest hammer priced Mustangs from Barrett-Jackson Scottsdale 2018.
