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

    “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.”

    “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.”

    “Very excited. I have been looking for a long time, and plan to use it as a daily driver as well as occasional track use. So the somewhat odd spec is perfect for my intended use. I am far from being a professional driver, so I plan to enjoy this for many years.”

    “What a priceless pair of twins. As the original owner of a 1970 Triumph Bonneville, I can fully appreciate this small, but wonderful example of Triumph history. My 1970 Bonneville was still in the wooden shopping crate when I picked it.ip at the shipping dock. It was sent to me unassembled and unpreped for retail delivery. My dealer was so busy with sales and deliveries in 1970, he did not have time or staff to open the crate, assemble and prep my bike and fabricrate a new shipping crate. I…”

    “I remember seeing these all over the car magazines in the 60’s and 70’s. I need to go into my garage and see how much room I can create!!! This will be a great car if done right. GLWTA!!”

    “When I was in my late twenties I did not have much money and like many of us, cut my teeth on Japanese sports cars as they were plentiful, cheap and we all remember back in the ’80s in high school when they were new and so cool. It was just a normal progression to buy one..as the years marched on after graduating university and finally working full time, I had an epiphany…I finally got sick of buying people’s hand me down rusty cars that I would spend years fixing-up only to end up with…”

    SlowNRusty commented on 1989 Porsche 911 Turbo Coupe

    “A bunch of years ago (well, decades ago), I bought a well-used but complete and drivable ’66 912 from a garage sale in Reseda, CA for the princely sum of $1000. I drove it the few blocks to my home. Going through the paperwork, I found the title, with Axl Rose’s name on it. Guns ‘n Roses’ Axl Rose.
    So I washed it a bit, advertised it in The Recycler and flipped it for $2000. Felt like a genius.
    How times have changed…”

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

    “in all this auction excitement, I’ve devoted a certain amount of my morning coffee time searching the internet for my own Ferrari 288 GTO – a number of which are thankfully within my price range, including Walmart, for about $100.
    However, due to their scaled down 1:18 size and non-running status, it’s unlikely I’ll be driving it anywhere other than “my imagination” during this lifetime.
    Perhaps my NEXT lifetime.”

    Delia_Wolfe commented on Lot #250,000: 1985 Ferrari 288 GTO

    “Another interesting fact thanks to Andy is this car was shipped on August 17, 1965 and delivered to Hayward Motors in CA and on the deliver truck were two additional 350’s as well as a prototype GT40….now that would be a cool truck to see driving down the road!!! This car is a statement piece and one of the true great American muscle cars.”

    “Fantastic listing, beautiful wagon. Every time I look through the gallery it brings back memories of the days of wooden picnic baskets and surfboards with the family, when times were just a tad slower. @bosshoss3406pack thank you for the tag, great memories with this one.”

    “@WIZZZZ
    I met Fred at Bonneville in 1963. He had set a 2-way record the previous year at 99.06 mph with his absolutely stock Corvair Monza. I had managed to go 107 mph with my stock 61 Corvair but needed bigger tires. Fred told me that Rambler Station Wagons had 15″ wheels that would fit Corvairs. There was a little junk yard on the outskirts of Wendover, Utah right on the state border with Nevada. I went down there and found a Nash Rambler in there with two 6.40 X 15″ tires (1 was…”

    “Last summer the Eastern PA Chapter of the Audi Club did it’s annual covered bridges drive and ice cream run. A very fun and spirited ~150 mile drive. I show up in my 1989 80 Quattro, my wife drove our 2001 TT 225 Roadster, and a guy I had never seen before at any Audi event shows up in one of these. Jaws dropped. He was super nice, down to earth, and had no problem with any of us getting in and checking it out.”
