Gooding & Company sold a total of 49 out of 52 lots at its most recent sale, collectively earning nearly $15 Million in sales at Scottsdale, Arizona.  In addition to the top-selling 1956 Jaguar D-Type, two other cars crossed the million dollar mark at Gooding & Company: the 1934 Duesenberg Model J Disappearing-Top Convertible Coupe sold for $1.815 Million, and the 1959 Costin Lister Jaguar Sports Racer sold for a world record-breaking $1.1 Million.
 
"We had an outstanding day with a remarkably high percentage sold at 94%," said David Gooding, president and founder of Gooding & Company.  "In addition to the outstanding $3.74 Million final sale price of the 1956 Jaguar D-Type, we are thrilled to beat a world record with the $1.1 Million sale of the 1959 Costin Lister Jaguar Sports Racer."
 
On a philanthropic note, Gooding & Company made a significant donation to the International Response Fund of the American Red Cross this week to benefit the relief efforts in Haiti and also partnered with the local Grand Canyon chapter by setting up a successful donation centre at the auction site during its Friday Auction.
