Jimmy Buffett’s Classic Car Sells For Big Money
Jimmy Buffett’s classic car sold for a lot of money at a recent car auction. The car auction happened in Greensboro, North Carolina, and was among around 800 cars available for the auction. The car that was up for auction was a 1963 Ford Falcon Sprint. Additionally, someone purchased the car for $258,500. The car is one of a kind not just because Jimmy Buffett owned the car. It’s a convertible and it’s got its own rollbar, which is more common in sports cars. Secondly, Jimmy Buffett added the rollbar so he could hold a surfboard on the car. The car was sold at the GAA Classic Car auction.
I know I would love to own the car the Jimmy Buffett owned. The person who bought the car will definitely enjoy driving with the top down and maybe a surf board attached to the rollbar. Check out a pic of the car below.

He wouldn’t have become a billionaire without being a great businessman.
