    “Merci beaucoup. The car will indeed be driven across Paris, France’s fantastic b-roads and through mountain passes in Europe, both as a cool family car and also for vintage car rallies & events that I love to go to or organise.”

    “When I first saw this auction I wanted to Jump! I expected there to be an Eruption of bids due to provenance. Driving at 10/10th would be like Runin’ With the Devil for sure. This car is the stuff Dreams are made of. If I won, I would definitely Dance The Night Away. OK I am done…”

    “I grew up in a family of chevy owners, just chevy’s, and I had my big block in high school. Then the new girl friend asks me over to meet her family and what does the Dad have, an Opel Manta in orange. He takes me out to inspect it and at some point hands me the key and says, have fun. Well, I did and from that point forward my world changed. Tried to talk my dad into letting me buy an MGB, that didn’t work until I bought my own in college and started auto X’ing with it. Then road racing…”

    “Nobody ever accused Gus Godley of being a visionary.
    In 1959, Gus was a janitor at Chrysler’s Highland Park headquarters, a long way from Fort Stockton, Texas, where common sense was considered a civic virtue and automobiles were generally expected to resemble automobiles. He swept floors, emptied wastebaskets, and consumed enough Folgers to keep a small freight train running on schedule.
    One rainy Tuesday morning, Gus was cleaning the Plymouth Design Studio before the stylists arrived.…”

    “I think adding the Buick rally wheels was a great choice, especially with the white wall tires. They spice it up a bit without being obnoxious. I imagine that pulling the car cover over this beast would be quite a workout. For me, the only wagon more desirable than this would be a 1968 Olds Vista Cruiser.”

    “A V10 Gated Gallardo is a big 12 year old goal for me to own. 12 year old me used to see the Gallardo all the time before the Huracan existed when I was in high school. No newer V10 baby Lambo can replace the Gallardo for being gated and better looking with age. GLWS on this Rosso Italian beauty.”

    “Years ago, I had coffee in San Francisco with a venture capitalist from Sequoia. Over conversation, it came out that we were both really into Porsches. I was telling him about my Blue Turquoise 993 that I was (and still am) really proud of. He said that he also had a 993. He asked if I wanted to take a look at it out in the parking lot. Of course, I took him up on the opportunity, but what I saw was really unexpected. It was a 993 Turbo S in this color, covered in mud. He had over 100,000 miles…”

    “I commented earlier about operating these at the Marine Corps Mountain Warfare Training Center in Bridgeport CA. They are very easy to drive and we accumulated thousands of hours on ours. They are extremely well engineered and very reliable. They were maintained by our own mechanics and did not require them to attend additional technical training. The rubber tracks last a surprisingly long time as long as they are not run on concrete or asphalt too often. We did not baby these things, they…”

    “Hard to imagine that this stunning body style only lasted 3 years. Peak GM sculpting straight out of mid century Detroit. Whew”

    “Just stunning. Hard to imagine today that these were once just considered cars and converted to race cars and sometimes trucks! I read where a wealthy widow donated her late husband’s for scrap to support the war effort.”

    “I remember growing up in the 90s and early 2000s watching this series on speedvision, cable channel 53 back then. Kinda brings back memories of the real time integra type r from back in that era as well. Great memories.”

    “I remember back in the mid to late 80s, collectors were buying big blocks C2’s, but stayed away from split windows, telling everybody nobody wants them, hard to see out of the back, blah, blah blah! Funny how times have changed.
    Beautiful Car, GLWTA!”

    “Got to drive a Farmall of similar vintage at a friend’s property in Vermont – so much fun. And they were thrilled that I happily spent an entire afternoon mowing their enitre property, and then thanked them afterwards 😂😂
    And, really – any vehicle that comes with a Mason Jar as standard equipment is worth owning.”
