“Oh my… The road trip to bring this to the PNW will be EPIC.”
“Absolutely beautiful! It’s been a local car to me my whole life, even with the move. Unfortunately we’ve never crossed paths. Hopefully a new owner is found and enjoys it like Mr Waite did for 60 years!”

“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…”

“I’ve seen this beauty in person, and let me tell you—it’s been meticulously maintained and absolutely babied. The owner has taken incredible care of it, keeping it spotless inside and out. Everything runs smoothly, looks sharp, and feels road-ready without a worry. If you’re looking for a motorhome that’s been treated with pride and attention to detail, this one is a rare find. You won’t just be buying a rig—you’ll be getting peace of mind knowing it’s been loved and cared for…”

“What a lovely, and well driven example! Tasteful mods, and miles and miles of future enjoyment for the next lucky owner. I’ve owned my 97 C4S for 15 years, she just rolled 135k, up from 63k at acquisition. These cars are just such an experience, just so immensely satisfying to drive…and to own.
Good luck to the seller, and fair notice to potential bidders….well sorted, long term owner, well “driven” 993’s are more scarce by the year. This car will continue to turn heads, and…”

“I’ve learned a lot on this project. Thank you dad, grandpa, uncles, and friends to show me around the toolbox. This project has certainly helped me as a 15T Blackhawk mechanic to pick up aviation terminolgy easier. I wouldn’t have had the start I did without your help. My projects started small LOL, but have gotten bigger over the years. If anyone has any remaining questions, feel free to ask. Happy to see this car go to a good owner, but I’m happy to drive it around to car shows and…”

“The Lexus LS430 was built at the moment when the pursuit of perfection and the economics of mass production briefly coincided. That window has closed; it may not open again in our lifetime. And so these cars matter—not for what they are worth in dollars, but for what they prove: that it was possible, that once, for six years in a factory in Tahara, Japan, human beings got as close to perfect as human beings have ever got in the building of a motorcar. And then they stopped, and we moved on……”

“Proud to bring this iconic car to BaT. I purchased it directly from Ken Block around the time he transitioned from Ford to Audi, and during my ownership it’s been carefully maintained and preserved to the same standard as when it left Ken’s hands.
This isn’t just a build or a replica of an era — this Hoonigan Escort Mk2 Gymkhana car holds a special place in Ken Block and Hoonigan history. It’s the car he owned the longest, and to me it represents the raw, analog side of what made…”

“I’m 60 now and cannt remember any to events when I was 5 in 1970 but this day I will always remember. , My dad was looking for a slightly used car for the family and I clearly recall the day we went to Beach Brothers Chrysler Dodge Plymouth in Salem, Va to look at a 1969 Coronet 2dr and there I stood staring at the two Superbirds parked beside each in a back row. My dad said they looked ridiculous, I thought they were the coolest cars I’d ever seen. I have loved them ever since. He bought…”

“What a great story, thanks for sharing…
Also great to see these old cars getting used, dirty and maybe a rock-chip memory or two…
That Gulf Livery 911 was spotted by me on Fathers Day coming down from Pinecrest last year.
It was my first time taking my daughter on an annual camping trip my wifes family has been doing for years. Wife doesn’t like camping so after years of declining the invite, I decided my daughter was old enough to give ‘glamping’ a shot as an entry into another…”

“Back when BMW Car Club of America was still young and Hoffman Motors was the sole U.S. Distributor, it was the club members who offered guidance to BMW owners regarding things to watch out for. One such piece of advice was to avoid purchase of BMWs with two-stage metallic paint due to failure of the clear coat.
Complaints ranged from dulling, checking to llifting and separation of large clear coat sections on all horizontal surfaces — hood, roof and decklid. After numerous complaints,…”

“In my opinion the textbook definition of a Mercedes-Benz modern classic. This 1991 model is hands down the nicest example I have seen in the last 30 years.
If Bruno Sacco is considered in artist, the C126 is his “Sistine Chapel”.
Best of luck !!!
