    “I was building a large garage for a customer back in ‘87 or ‘88. I was just finishing up the lighting and up pulls an enclosed transport.
    The driver opens the doors and proceeds to offload a brand new GNX and a Turbo TA.
    They still sit in that garage to this day.”

    “Corvettes, Testarossas, 911s… no… this is my exotic dream car… and that colour! Looks like an excellent body restoration. And it is in my motherland!”

    “Sitting in Boston Children’s, and reading the proceeds go to support pediatrics – hits pretty hard. Thank you to the seller for organizing this.”

    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…”

    NSU meets Citroen
    Weird gets weirder.
    I love it!”

    “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…”

    “I’ve been racing a 1966 Lola T70 Spyder now for five years. And can promise you that the experience is incredible. I certainly hope that the new owner will come racing. And I get a chance to be on the track with this car, and with you the new owner.
    Talk about being welcome to just about any grid. This is your ticket.
    I also purchased the Lola T163 here on BAT recently. The purchase price was $350,000. And the experience of purchasing the car. And after the purchase. Was very nice with…”

    “If you are looking for something that will outlast the four-cylinder turbo that is now in the Land Cruiser, this is what you need. These things will go another 400,000 miles, no problem. At first glance, it looks like a garage queen but it’s just getting broken in!”

    “Wow, what a stance on this spectacular F100 bumpside 4×4. The two-tone color scheme is awesome! Interior is nice and the engine is clean. Truly a cool build here!”

    “The gap between the order date and the serialized date on the Marti report reminds me that Ford workers went on strike in the fall of 1976.
    I had factory ordered a new Econoline 150 around the same time as this Bronco and I took delivery in January of 1977. My van was the same Midnight Metallic Blue as this Bronco. A Great color”

    “So I have taking a break from BaT for a while and thought what the heck, let’s see what’s happening. Wow, this amazing 928 and an honest to goodness perfect Mangusta. Holy moly welcome back!”

    “Never met a Norton I didn’t like. Probably explains why I have three already. Great bikes.”

    “It’s nice seeing one of these pop up that was actually raced! So many of these factory race cars (from every manufacturer) end up sitting in a collection, never turning a single revolution in anger.
    Awesome Camaro!”

    “As the builder of this immaculate machine I will answer some of the questions that have been posted .
    I’m the Genius that installed the Palmini floor pan on the floor pan . It was and still common to mount the fuel tank in this location . on this paticular kart with three engines there is no room for a seat back tank .
    all of the compoenants are original , I spent a lot of time and money aquiring all the Palmini , Hands and Van Tech parts to build this machine
    All three engines are original…”

    “The Dark Toreador Red color on these always looked good. With the matching grill and the dual exhaust set itself apart from it’s Grand Marquis and Crown Vic parents. Matched with a few good options like the trunk organizer and heated seats this is a great example of a car that all of us would buy 10 times over given the chance to go back 20 years and walk into a new car dealership!

    “My favorite auction of the year.
    My very first car was precisely this, but in tan and minus the Cragars. Served me well throughout college and for a cross-country drive to Southern California after college. Raced a Mazda RX-7 across approximately 100 miles of the desert Southwest, with my 10-speed bike strapped to the roof rack. I pulled away from him on the flat stretches and he caught and passed me in the mountain curves. Eventually my 440 needed gas and he didn’t. Good times.
    Several…”
