The winning bid for actor Matthew McConaughey’s 1971 Stingray Corvette convertible, auctioned on eBay for hurricane relief, was $61,600.
The Texas native said he’s donating all proceeds from last month’s sale to Oprah’s Angel Network for Hurricane Katrina and Rita recovery efforts.
The Web site indicated 72 bids were received for the sports car. The name of the winning bidder was not immediately released.
McConaughey, 36, was born in Uvalde and grew up in Longview. He has appeared in such films as “The Wedding Planner” and “Sahara” and was People magazine’s “sexiest man alive” in 2005.
