    mnnice commented on No Reserve: 1970 Plymouth Barracuda Gran Coupe 383 4-Speed

    “This jeep has been great to own for over 31 years. I just decided that it is time to move on and find a buyer who will appreciate it and take care of it like I have. It was one of the very last to be built with a 5-speed manual transmission, which makes it a rare find. I welcome any questions that buyers may have. Thank you for your interest.”

    rbillinger commented on No Reserve: Original-Owner 1994 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo 4×4 5-Speed

    “That’s legit and 100% original IMHO. Worked at a Schwinn shop as a kid and put together a few of those. A lot of people (cool kids) ditched the front fender. That’s the original seat. Those are the original pedals. This is all recollection but very clear. . They were wheelie machines and no fun whatsoever to get up a hill! An early but awesome memory! GLWTA!”

    “I would have seen this car take pole Vancouver Indy. Never missed a day of Indy CART when we had the series in Vancouver. What experiences! Those of us that are hardcore racing fans should count ourselves lucky to see have these cars run. I fear for open wheel racing with the growth of hybrid/EV. You just cannot substitute internal combustion and the screaming revs , the smells, the vibrations deep in your chest .
    Magnificent car, this example. And the absolute top of the heap for its…”

    Tobyallen commented on Ex–Jacques Villeneuve 1995 Reynard-Ford Cosworth 95I

    “Jacques Villeneuve is from my home province of Quebec and is a legend in these parts for having won the F1 Championship in ’97.
    His father was Gilles, was one of the most electrifying F1 drivers ever. 1982 R.I.P.”

    JamesTH commented on No Reserve: 1965 Alfa Romeo Giulia Sprint GT Project

    “I drove one of these on the Lotus Factory test track, a phenomenal car. This has the touring suspension which makes it a nice daily driver. I did not drive an Emira with the sport suspension but from what I hear it is still very streetable. I have a friend with an Emira so far the only repairs are software updates.”

    “I remember the day when, “stock car” races, the cars had to be stock. So each manufacturer made a special super car and produced only 2000 of then, just so they could race them. I wish they still did this.”

    kodpkd commented on Ex–Richard Petty 1970 Plymouth Superbird

    “The best color and the best year to own.
    Road trip? This is the car you want. Need to do a Costco run for a family gathering of 100 people? The Impala trunk has you covered!
    Some of the best air conditioning and heat you’ll ever encounter in a car.
    And if you desire more power you can do what I’m doing now after 13 years of ownership. Lloyd Elliot heads and cam for some more fun. 🙂
    GLWA and I hope the next owner puts some proper mileage on this beast.”

    “Anybody who ticks both “429 Cobra Jet” and “Woodgrain appliqué” on the option sheet is the kind of person I want to know.”

    beardedelephant commented on 1971 Ford Ranchero Squire 429 Cobra Jet

    “Been a car guy for 70 years. Everything from a ‘31 Chevy sedan to an F40. Last spring I stopped in for a visit at our new local McLaren store for a look around. I’d read a lot about issues with the earlier cars but those were mostly software related. Anyway, given my advanced age I decided to get one before I roll over for the last time. So I bought a new GTS to add to my modest stable. Never have had any trouble whatsoever. I drive it a couple times a week and it stays on the maintainer…”

    “I remember seeing these at the Buick dealer in Jamestown , NY. Soon to be just a Honda dealer. Well equipped at base price, and hard to get one.[1976].
    I moved back to Washington DC, in mid 78. By fall of 1979, i ordered a [Catherine] brown base car, from a dealer in Fredericksburg VA, which I realized ,after 5 months, was never going to come in. While visiting the local huge dealer in Arlington, I saw a Red LX. I asked if I might buy it for sticker, and the salesmen agreed. Signed the buyers…”

    “I am in love. The opalescent paints that Jaguar used during this era are some of the best looking colors ever produced – almost like late ‘50s Detroit colors, but more delicate. Good luck with this auction, but with a car this good looking, I don’t think you need luck!”

    A few of the comments that stood out to us yesterday:

    “We have been overwhelmed by the positive reaction and comments on the Black Shadow and our shop. I wish I could say it was all me but it is not. Jack Wilson told me ” you can’t do it all by yourself” . This maybe the best advice he ever gave me because I have two dedicated and talented mechanics that combined have been here 40 plus years. I also have several longtime sub contractors and suppliers that are reliable and understand our commitment to the motorcycles we work on.
    Contact us for any…”

    ekmcmullen commented on 1974 Citroen GS Birotor

    “This looks like a great, honest Porsche 911T Coupe 5-speed. Yes, all U.S.-delivered cars came with MFI, while ROW models had carburetors.
    This example appears to be a very untouched, original car with all the right period-correct parts, and a rare specification, leather interior, and factory A/C. It has a really nice patina, and a 1972 T in this kind of condition is becoming increasingly rare. These make fantastic driver’s cars.
    When the time comes to rebuild the engine, it’s a great…”
