Highlights from the Ron and Sarah Jury Grand National Collection:

1970 Chevrolet Nova Yenko Deuce - Estimate: $170,000 - $190,000

A crown jewel of American muscle, the 1970 Chevrolet Nova Yenko Deuce is one of just 175 built and stands as a rare piece of performance history. Equipped with a high-output LT1 350-cubic-inch small-block V-8 engine, this car exemplifies the ingenuity of Don Yenko, who anticipated the tightening insurance restrictions on larger-displacement muscle cars. This particular example has been carefully restored, winning a National First Prize and becoming a Grand National winner at AACA events. Its Cranberry Red exterior, combined with its original high-performance specifications, make this car a sought-after collector's piece.

1957 Chevrolet Bel Air Convertible 'Fuel-Injected' - Estimate: $175,000 - $185,000

A true icon of American automotive history, this 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air Convertible is not only visually striking but also a powerhouse of innovation. With its Rochester Ramjet fuel injection system, the car's 283-cubic-inch V-8 engine produces one horsepower per cubic inch—a remarkable feat for its time. This Onyx Black convertible has won multiple AACA awards, including the Grand National First Prize and the Senior Grand National, and was also nominated for the Zenith Award, the highest honor bestowed by the AACA. Its rare fuel-injection system, combined with its beautifully restored condition, makes it one of the most desirable Bel Airs ever produced.

1947 Chrysler New Yorker Town and Country Sedan - Estimate: $150,000 - $175,000

This stunning example of Chrysler's post-war craftsmanship, the 1947 Chrysler New Yorker Town and Country Sedan is a rare beauty that blends engineering excellence with artisanal wood-body construction. Crafted with white ash and Honduran mahogany, the car features fine details like exposed finger joinery, a testament to the level of care involved in its creation. As a Full Classic recognized by the Classic Car Club of America, it stands out not just for its elegance but also for its rarity. Having won both AACA Senior National and Grand National awards, this car has been meticulously maintained and offers collectors a chance to own a piece of automotive art.
