Here’s yesterday’s comments of note

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

“I’m a Corvette girl. I grew up with a dad who restored them. His first Corvette was a ’57 that he used to race. He decided to make it street legal in the mid ’60’s and had it on the road 3 days when a lady ran a stop sign and busted up the front end. He put a new front end on it, and it’s been sitting in the garage waiting to be restored for the past 50ish years. I’m 50 and it’s always looked a bit like this Elva, though the undercarriage and the body are pristine–just raw because it’s been in…”

“I’ve been fortunate to own some really nice Ducati’s. My 996 SPS was one of my favorite bikes. Tons of linear power, killer exhaust note and just a joy to ride. Beautiful bike presented here @DesmoquattroRestorations”

“My father and I test drove this exact colour combination 300SD when it was brand new in Vancouver British Colombia. He pulled over half way into the test drive and asked if I wanted to drive it. He recently passed away and when I saw this car it took me back to that moment in my life and it made me smile.”

“What an auction. This car was purchased by my grandfather from the AE collection years back, then sold to our neighbor when he passed. The family is excited to have it back!!!”

“Q: How big of an engine can you fit in a G body 911?
A: Yes”

“When these were first introduced into the UK in late 1974 Porsche GB Ltd would not allow anyone to test drive one without first having been driven by and vetted by 11 time Le Mans competitor and race driver Nick Faure. Nick is known as Mr. Porsche and is a guru of the marque. (As an aside, Nick co-drove my March BMW M1 Group 5 race car in the 1980s and came in from practice laps ashen faced and pronounced it the scariest car he had ever driven). An interesting and entertaining drive report can…”

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

“We currently have a 250 SWB in our care that was built in direct collaboration with the exceptional team at GTO Engineering. Prior to joining Mohr Imports, I had the privilege of running GTO Engineering’s Los Angeles operation for several years and visited both the GTO House and restoration facility on multiple occasions.
I can’t say enough positive things about the craftsmanship, attention to detail, and passion that goes into these cars. Having had the opportunity to work alongside both…”

“A Nova Wagon with dog dish wheels and a V8 paired to a 4 speed. It doesn’t get a better than that! GLWTA”

“Such great trucks, went a decade with minimal styling updates. And the Vortec Chevy 454 is a LEGEND! And if it is really as clean as it appears, someone is going to get an awesome ride. Only thing it is missing from my ideal 3/4 Suburban build sheet would be barn doors in back, but the tailgate is what makes pregaming work too.”

“Hello BaT universe! I am the owner, craftsman, artist of this X-34 Landspeeder tribute vehicle. Since I couldn’t acquire the real one from that galaxy far, far away, (the import/transport fees would have been “astronomical”) I decided to build one to commemorate the upcoming 50th earthly anniversary of this iconic movie vehicle. I am looking forward to all the comments, questions, and bids.”

“When I scroll BaT, I’ve always held out hope I’d come across two cars: my dad’s ‘66 E Type, and this car. I sold this car to the current seller. Bought when I was 14, restored it, drove it through high school and into young married life. Sold it when I was broke with a growing family to support. Broke my heart to sell it, but clearly I sold to the right individual. Car looks absolutely amazing. I’ll start the bidding with the last sale price…”

“Harold is a Stroppe and Ford icon still with us today, he admits he is older and as for all of us, his memory is fading.
Rod unfortunately is no longer with us but there is a lot more info on his legendary existence.
with that being said, i invite anyone who knew or knew of Harold Allen and or his talents to share any stats and stories with us and the same with Rod?
i am sure @BajaBronco / Andrew and @Todd_Z. and @House along with a handful of others will have some important history and…”

“Many can own this. Very few can restore this. Some can ride this. It’s a commitment at all levels and entirely worth it. Legendary bike.”

“Yet another 1st for BaT.
Longer and wider than an Escalade, the Celestiq is the pinnacle of American craftsmanship and luxury.”

“Yes, used to throw those Muncies in and out like they were plastic ! I remember drag racing on Saturday night and getting home around midnight, working on the car all night , reload and head 50 miles north on Sunday to race again.”

“My first car was a black 1987 325es. I loved that car and always told myself I would own another E30. This one is perfect.”

“Every time I see one of these I can’t help but think so fondly of Ed “Lancia” Levin and his remarkable knowledge surrounding these cars.
These really are spectacular cars in every respect. Once you drive one, you never forget it. @seller needs no introduction here so bid with confidence. These have been woefully undervalued compared with similar era cars, but I believe all that is about to change as more people wake up to US landed examples like this, and the amazing amount of fun one can…”
