Rick Hendrick buys 'Transformers' truck at Barrett-Jackson

Hendrick, an avid car collector in addition to his day jobs as NASCAR team owner and the nation's largest Chevrolet dealer, paid $110,000 Saturday at the Barrett-Jackson Collector-Car Auction in Scottsdale, Arizona, to purchase "Optimus Prime," a 1979 custom Peterbilt truck used in the filming of the first "Transformers" movie.

As the winning bidder, Hendrick also earned a walk-in spot in the next "Transformers" movie.

That's not such a horrible price, it's a beautiful truck. I'd be curious to see if they restored the interior and upgraded it as well or if it was more focused on the exterior for the movie.

I could not even imagine having a knuckle buster on that steering wheel. I have driven farm tractors that had them and man do they hurt the knuckles.
