When bidding on the Bugatti Royale in 1986 this info was published:
He was one of 38 millionaires holding golden paddles entitling them to bid on the Bugatti Royale. To qualify, the international group of car collectors had to have at least a $1 million line of credit; Moore's was $40 million.
An immigrant from Russia who was so poor he didn't own a pair of shoes until he was 12 has paid the biggest price in history for an automobile--$6.5 million.
Houston shopping center magnate Jerry J. Moore, was the highest bidder for a 1931 Bugatti Royale Berline de Voyage limousine
