Here’s yesterday’s comments of note

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

“I am Bernie’s eldest daughter. I would like to thank everyone for their positive comments. My dad has read them all. I would also like to “publicly” thank @skydriver1949 for the countless hours he has spent helping my dad through this process. My dad bought this car when he was 32 and it’s been a cherished (and fun!) part of our family. While it’s difficult to part with the car, it’s time for someone new to be able to appreciate its history.”

“My father loved VWs and I grew up surrounded by a barnyard of mostly early 50s cars and vans. We swapped engines without any regard for anything except which ones ran the best. This is an amazing car anyway, but what truly astonishes me is the original engine still in place. Incredible.”

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

“I was at summer camp so I was around 10 years of age when my camp best friend said his father was coming to visit for the afternoon. Something I always missed as my father lived in Italy and camp was in the United States. well his father did indeed show up and riding a Vincent Black Shadow! I was by heritage a motor head already. What in the world was this motorcycle, it was not a “you meet the nicest people on a Honda” which were taking America by storm at the time. When my friend introduced…”

“When they were introduced could not sell what had been planned for U.S. mkt and some returned to Europe. Those sold here went down in value for awhile and then…. Mine was not taken by first purchaser when it arrived at dealer. I had originally turned the allocation but took it. Early comments from an owner captures it. Fantastic sound, torque, manual, no turbo, compliant suspension, smiles everytime”

“Driver & passenger sound like two kids in a candy store – can’t blame them.
Awesome ride to take to a track on weekends & I’d do school drop off during the week.”

“@68Vet
Baja California and back to Sacramento in a slant six Dart? That is an absolute adventure and proof positive that these cars were built for exactly that kind of journey. No drama, no breakdowns, just mile after mile of honest reliable transportation through some pretty unforgiving terrain. That slant six was one of the toughest engines ever bolted into an American car and your story is a perfect reminder of that.
Thank you for sharing that memory and for the kind words. That is…”

“Rode my BMX Mongoose to the local 7-Eleven who had this in the store. A Cherry and Coke mix Slurpee, a few runs on Pole Position and some Big Leage Chew for the rest of the afternoon. Life was good.”

“I’m presently fortunate to own a 72 365 GTC4 myself.. I can tell you that there are not many 50+ year-old vehicles that can cruise the highways at 100+ miles per hour, while prancing gracefully with cold air conditioning and as smooth as a modern day car ….This vehicle is truly bliss! and way undervalued.”

Elmo commented on 1972 Ferrari 365 GTC/4

“This car is one of the best. I owned it almost 10 years. It really is one of the best. Owner maintains it imperceptible.”

“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.”

rpmesq commented on S54-Powered 1986 BMW 325es 5-Speed

“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…”

“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.”
