    I stopped by a couple of times and you were busy doing demos and didn’t want to interrupt. What a great event.

    Would have liked to have been there for the Bullitt sale. I bet it was crazy. $3.4 Million, wow !

    Bullitt "Fun Facts" :

    - The chase scene wasn't even in the original script for the film.

    - Just (2) '68 Mustang 390 GT 2+2 Fastbacks and (2) '68 Charger 440 Magnums were used in the film. Both Chargers and one of the Mustangs were junked right after the film was shot.

    - On interior shots, you can tell when McQueen is driving vs. when Bud Ekins is driving. When McQueen is driving, the rearview mirror is tilted down to show his whole face; when the mirror is tilted up and you can only see the bottom part of a face, it's Ekins driving.

    - Bill Hickman, the actor who played the Charger driver actually did the driving. He later did other car driving stunts in movies, including The French Connection. And he was driving his buddy James Dean's station wagon and trailer, following Dean in the Porsche Spyder, the day Dean crashed and died. Hickman pulled Dean's body from the wreckage.

    So sorry to hear this.... I wish you would have interrupted.

    When working in a booth, if you're making noise, (running a polisher), it always works to draw people in. I've been demonstrating on black hoods since 1987 when I first started at Meguiar's and as of this month that makes 33 years of doing demos no black hoods, running the polisher and answering questions.

    I've worked at a LOT of cars shows in my life and a few auctions. The Mecum Auction is like nothing else I've experienced.

    For anyone into cars, if you ever have the opportunity to attend a Mecum Auction, by all means GO!

    And wear comfortable walking shoes....

    Thanks for being part of the 303 team this year. It was great having you in the booth. I wish i could have made it down, this is the first Kissimmee Auction i've missed in 4 years due to schedule conflicts. It looks like it was a great time and thankfully the weather cooperated.

    Hi Matthew,

    It was our pleasure. And it was a blast.

    This looked like an incredible event. What fantastic photos too Mike, it’s always cool seeing pictures of Forum Members, Mike Phillips fans & Detailers getting photos with you. I know this means something more than a celebrity status to you too - I believe the folks that want to have pictures with you aren’t doing so because you’re a TV personality & such, it’s because they have encountered in some form (whether it be taking part in a class you have held or an article by you that they have read) that Mike Phillips experience.

    I would like to have made it along to this but timing wasn’t on our side unfortunately.
