“I bought mine new in June of 1986….I was 24……I ordered it…….the last time it had 77 miles on it was 3 days after i bought it. I put 230,000 on it by….1998 ish. Never had it apart, but used synthetic oil from 10,000 on. Sold it for….$3600. GLWA”

“Art on wheels – no wonder Enzo was so smitten….
As a kid, RW 77 was frequently parked next to my mum’s Healey 3000 outside the Horse & Groom in Alresford, Hants and thiks early fascination with the E was firmly planted in this kid’s brain. Subsequent personal involvement with John Coombs’ lightweight E Types at Goodwood only served to deepen the lifelong fascination and appreciation of these automotive masterpieces. This is a stellar example and you cannot replace history….”

“May be the best car Ford ever made. My son had one, and it was bullet proof, as well as comfortable. Nice and simple to, you can actually see the alternator, and belts. Sorry they don’t make them like this anymore. Just and Old Geezer remembering the Good Old Days.”

“Why would someone build this?
You can also ask yourself:
Why would someone climb Mount Everest?
Why run 26.2 miles
Why enter a steel cage and fight hand to hand until you quit or get knocked out?
Why would you want to be “The strongest man in the world”?
There are so many things in life that will never make sense to a lot of us, and to most of us this build makes no sense. I guarantee that to some this is the ultimate piece of industrial art.
Ownership puts you in a class of…”

“This is why people started following BAT, not for dealers flipping 2004 Ford Rangers with new paint. I have never heard of this thing, very unique, just don’t want to be behind it on a hill.”

Vonder commented on 1989 Ford LTD Crown Victoria Station Wagon “Family Truckster” Re-Creation

“Hi everyone, and welcome to the auction!
I’m excited to share my Wagon Queen Family Truckster re-creation with the Bring a Trailer community. This project represents hundreds of hours of work to capture all the quirky details of the Griswold family’s iconic road trip car from National Lampoon’s Vacation.
It was always a dream of mine to own a big American station wagon, and the Truckster felt like the ultimate expression of that dream. After the build was completed, we took the…”

“I owned one exactly like this, even the same color. For anyone on the fence, trying to decide if it’s right for you, let me offer my perspective. This is an excellent machine with so many things going for it. These are comfortable, versatile, very capable, very reliable, easy to ride, and easy to maintain. They are NOT sporty, quick, agile, exhilarating, or sexy. They are more like a tractor than a sports car. But that would be a German tractor, which means excellent engineering. (Think…”

“My first job out of high school, I worked at a Porsche dealer.
We kept a fleet of 6-8 Yugos as service loaners. We also had a fleet of Mazda 323’s. But when those were all spoken for – the customer ended up with a Yugo.
That is, unless the customer complained really loud – then I got sent to the used car lot down the road to grab an Audi or something similar for them to drive.
I could tell a lot about a person when they complained about the Yugo. On one hand, I understood they paid a lot…”

“Worked at Scottsdale Ferrari in the 90’s. We found two Daytona Spyder’s in an airplane hangar in Mexico. One orange, one was chocolate brown metallic. Both had the same color interior as this one. One had 3,500 miles, the other had 1,800 miles. Yes, they were legit Spyders.
The owner kept talking about stripping them to paint them red. I am unsure if he did but thinking about it makes me sad. From what I was able to find, only 2 were built in orange and 2 in brown. Sure hope they were…”

“In 1988, I laid my hands on something extraordinary: a 1983 Audi 5000 Turbo-Diesel Automatic cloaked in liquid sunshine—Gold Metallic paint so bright it could blind pigeons mid-flight, with an interior swaddled in coffee-brown leather, the color of an expensive cigar lounge.
Now, most people saw trouble. It had a head gasket leak—a deal breaker for the faint of heart. But me? I had a mate inside the Audi dealership who whispered, “They don’t want to fix it. They’re tossing it.” For…”

“In 1964 this car appeared in my neighborhood in Ft. Lauderdale Florida. I was an impressionable fifteen-year-old and Dr. Lane was daily driving this 904 all over town. One day I chased him on my bicycle to inquire about the car. He generously let me sit in the car and told me about his racing plans. He traded in a Ferrari 250 (SWB) to obtain this Porsche. Dr. Lane was a renaissance man- brain surgeon, commadore at Lauderdale Yacht Club, pilot and owner of twin engine airplane, SCCA racer,…”

“Oh hello, old friend! I managed Aston Martin Newport Beach for 6+ years, I spec’d this car personally, and I sold it to the original owner. Used to see him driving in Newport/Laguna all the time. I don’t work there anymore, so I don’t have access to the service records, but my memory was that the original owner did the scheduled maintenance on time, and the remainder of the service visits you see on the carfax are for tires. I seem to remember that he didn’t have the best luck with…”

“What a fabulous example of the timeless Pagoda; interesting history and colors, well-documented and presented (all the spot welds you could ever ask for!), two tops, and three pedals….. Surely this must be in the top 10% of 280SLs recently offered here?!?”

“@jtzer I was the founder of Classic Promenade and sold the dealership to two young, smart and hard-working couples on June 30th. I completely inspected this Bentley and drove it extensively in June, even in the 100 plus F temperatures in Phoenix. (I’m a senior RROC and concours judge). It essentially drives as a new S1 Continental. I am now in Lucerne, Switzerland driving our R-Type Mulliner Lightweight Saloon for two months from Ireland to Tuscany and back. Cheers and best of luck to the…”

“Awesome! Looking forward to it. Sadly, my wife passed away a couple of weeks ago from a long fight with breast cancer. I have two 1984 533i’s one is a parts car, the other is a work in progress, and I have spent so much time and money working on it that I simply don’t want the hassle any longer. I have always wanted the original M5, and my wife would be happy that I made that dream a reality. So looking forward to it!!”

“The rarity of the M81 McLaren Mustang DSO kit cannot be overstated. Maybe 20 were made in addition to the 10 M81 McLaren Mustang prototypes. Of the DSOs on the road, I know of maybe 5. I own one which is currently on display at the Petersen Automotive Museum in Los Angeles. Added note, the rear GT Enduro spoiler is even more rare.”
