“Any compact two door wagon is cool in its own right and being a Stude ensures it’ll be the only one anywhere it goes. What’s most unique and exciting about this rarity though is the engine build. I had no idea there was an array of speed equipment for the flathead six, particularly to the level of a high compression aluminum head. Reading the attached Cathcart article (from 1999!) suggests at least 140HP from this little 169ci flattie. It’s got to be a light car, I’m guessing under 3K lbs…”

“Cool build! I’m not much of a rat rod guy but this has so much going for it I couldn’t resist checking it out. The radiator mounted in back is is very well done and I love the way the grill shell keeps with the voodoo/Tiki vibe! And a hemi? Awesome.”

“‘Love it when he owner provides spirited driving videos! Congratulations to @waltnelson. That was a fun ride. I’ve had my teal blue ’73 B//GT for 39 years now. I only drive it when I need to go somewhere in a car. (Think about that for a moment…) Well… I don’t drive it in snow/salt season. I agree with all the great comments about these cars already posted here; adding only that the B/GT is about the most useful little car on the planet, and that MG owners have got to be…”

“There is a better chance of seeing Bigfoot riding a unicorn down your street than encountering a three-pedal Toyota Solara.”

“My introduction to the GS was reading about the GS club in either Car Craft or Hotrod Magazine in the 80’s. I joined the club in 1989 not owning a GS but interested. I bought a Flint built 69 GS 350 project on e-bay sometime in the mid 2000’s. Didn’t take long to be overwhelmed and realize I’d made a terrible mistake. Finally joined the Buick owning community in 2012 when I bought my uncles ’86 Grand National. A couple of years ago I bought John Chamberlain’s 74 GS Stage 1 to replicate my first…”

RedTruck1100 commented on No Reserve: Ex–CHP Police Car 1963 Dodge 880 Sedan 413 Project

“These California Highway Patrol Mopars were special cars. There were over 50 modifications Chrysler let CHP order on each of these cars that wasn’t available to the public. Things like presetting the torsion bars higher to compensate for the push bars on the front and the 413 wasn’t available on a civilian 880. These old Mopar squad cars are underrated and the best driving cars they made.”

“Even as a “Project” this Hispano-Suiza exudes and elegance few cars can match.
I suppose it may be because of my affinity for Packards, but a V-12 (with the exception of that dreadful thing used in the Lincoln Zephyr) always grabs my attention. I hope we will get to see this wonderful car completed.

@Hoppy18 – Reading about this Hispano-Suiza makes for a fine start to a Saturday morning! Thanks for the tag!”

“For prospective buyers, Marcus Anghel is second to none in Mustang restoration. Getting a car that Marcus restored, even only partially like this one, is an honor. He is at the top for Gen-1 Mustang originality and details. Check out his website for an education.
And as others have noted, Gulfstream Aqua is a stunning factory color on this model.
Looking forward to the final price.”

“My first car was a 73 4 door custom. White with black vinyl roof and bondo fenders my Dad did with chicken wire. Slant 6 with an FM converter added that also picked up TV stations. Also had a 70 340 Swinger in HEMI orange for a few years. I have a soft spot for 70’s Darts. GLWTA!”

“Chris here, the founder of S30.world
I’ve truly enjoyed the auction so far and am humbled by the response from everyone.
I have invested an extraordinary amount of time and resources into the S30 platform and for those who truly understand these cars, the reason is obvious.
When I finally decided to take the 240Z back to the level of when it first left the factory, it became a personal statement and an expression of pure passion for the car. I wanted to create a tribute to the S30…”

“I am both really happy and sad at the same time to see this car listed by Fred on BaT. I was the one that originally built it as part of a project series on our old website (VWVortex.com) and it looks like Fred has really done a nice job in preserving and maintaining my old car. Bid with confidence.. and I will look forward to seeing the questions and the auction progress.”

PaulGinAZ commented on 2.1L 16V-Powered 1981 Volkswagen Scirocco S 6-Speed

“I’ve always has a soft spot for first-year designs. Back in the day, car designers were able to accomplish things with their new creations that actually made it into first year production. These unique attributes were often removed or replaced by the bean counters in subsequent model years. The 67 TBird is a good example: compare the front bumper on this car to a 68 or later and you’ll find a beautifully designed full-chrome piece that is replaced by painted metal on other models. The…”

“That fuse panel is as good as it gets for 48 years old, no wiring hacks, clean relay blocks, no signs of burnt fuse terminals. And all the fuse positions have the correct fuse in them, and fuse 13 is supposed to be empty. Gotta love the hand-painted stripes on many of the wires, these early cars are full of little easter eggs like that.
Definitely worth the hassle of getting the pics to instill bidder confidence!”
