Classic and collector car auction to feature 10 private collections in Pennsylvania July 23-26
Walworth, Wis. – July 17, 2025 – Mecum Auctions [1] is returning to the
Pennsylvania Farm Show Complex in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, July 23-26,
for the annual Mecum Harrisburg [2] auction, where an estimated 1,200
vehicles will cross the auction block. The event will be live on ESPN+
starting at noon ET Thursday-Saturday and live-streamed on Mecum.com [3]
and Mecum’s YouTube channel [4].
There are 10 unique collections that will be offered in Harrisburg, one
of which is the Winners Circle Project Collection [5]. The five cars in
this collection are the result of a nonprofit STEAM (Science,
Technology, Engineering, Arts and Math) student project, during which
the students worked closely with their teachers and other industry
professionals to create the builds. Four of the five vehicles are 1965
Factory Five Shelby Cobra Replica Roadsters [6], and the fifth is a 1965
Factory Five Shelby Daytona Replica [7]. Each car is unique to the group
of students who worked on it, and all proceeds from the cars will be
donated back to the program.
Throwing it back to the ’50s is The Dannie and Barbara McHone
Collection [8], which comprises a variety of vehicles from the “Golden
Age” of motoring. Included in this collection is a 1951 Mercury Custom
[9] built with a 5.0L V-8, a 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air Hardtop [10]
finished in Surf Green and Colonial White, and a 1959 Dodge Coronet
Lancer [11] finished in a striking red and black. This entire collection
is selling at no reserve and will be crossing the block on Thursday,
July 24. Also in the lineup of auction-bound collections is The American
Muscle Car Collection [12], made up of vintage American muscle cars,
Mopars and more, including a 1994 Dodge Viper RT/10 Roadster [13], a
1967 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible [14] and a 1970 Plymouth Cuda [15].
Along with the collections, a variety of standout vehicles are set to
cross the block in Harrisburg, including the 1956 Mercedes-Benz 190SL
Convertible [16], a main attraction finished in Medium Blue and equipped
with a 1.9L inline 4-cylinder engine. Another highlight is the Serial
No. 21 1970 Dodge Challenger R/T Convertible Pilot Car [17], which is
one of only 61 V-code six-pack convertibles produced. European
performance is represented by a red 1984 Ferrari 308 GTS Quattrovalvole
[18] built to European specifications.
