AUTOS By Jenny King<br />
Gooding & Company classic car auction<br />
^"•""Nd ooding &<br />
m l Company puts on<br />
• 'mmgm a two-day auction<br />
M I in mid-August at<br />
^-^l Pebble Beach,<br />
Calif., with cars so magnificent,<br />
they might easily be entered<br />
in the neighboring<br />
Pebble Beach Concours<br />
d'Elegance, which runs the<br />
same mid-August weekend.<br />
No fewer than nine vehicles<br />
changed hands for more than<br />
$1 million. Six-figure sales<br />
were ordinary.<br />
Buyers responded enthusiastically<br />
to the 170 cars quartered<br />
in and around the white<br />
Gooding tents near the<br />
Pebble Beach Equestrian<br />
Center.<br />
The Santa Monica-based<br />
company reported 129 sales<br />
from its Aug. 15 through Aug.<br />
16 auctions valued at $50.8<br />
million.<br />
A1962 Ferrari 250 GT SWB<br />
California Spider brought the<br />
most: $5,115,000.<br />
An Aston Martin, a Jaguar<br />
and a Buick broke their previous<br />
sales records, Gooding reported.<br />
This kind of market takes<br />
on a life of its own. Winning<br />
bids sometimes verify the professional<br />
presale value estimates;<br />
sometimes they far exceed<br />
or drop well below those<br />
dollar amounts. Deal or no<br />
deal?<br />
Auction staff put a value of<br />
up to $95,000 on a rare and<br />
largely original 1936 Chrysler<br />
