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

    “WOW!! This is my old car that I owned for 26 years and restored during that time. If the buyer wants to know any of the history, I can provide info for the period that I owned it. @IanC – When I sold it, I did include the Jaguar Heritage Certificate with it. Since I got it so long ago, it looks much different than the ones you get today. Hopefully, it’s still with the car. The colors are original – Opalescent Silver Blue with dark blue interior and top. I’ll be watching this one!”

    “What a cherry looking little car! 1963 remains my favorite year for the Type 1 1200 Sedan and seeing one like this, in stock spec after years of well-loved ownership just makes me smile! Everyone has a VW Story and this VW has a great story all on it’s own.
    I didn’t see anything mentioned about a “Birth Certificate” and, while it may be impossible to receive one before the end of the auction, this car deserves one. Per the technical data on TheSamba.com Chassis No. 5241720 would have rolled…”

    “My 66 Shelby is a 4 speed, my 65 cobra is a manual, but I have owned two 67 500 Automatics and 3 67 350 4 Speeds. I loved my 67 small block cars, but nothing like putting a 500 in drive and just cruise. Maybe I’m just getting old, but I did catch myself driving the auto 500s more than the manuals.”

    CollectorCarClub commented on 1967 Shelby Mustang GT500 Fastback

    “What a legacy this car has… Bruce McLaren, who “finished second behind Jack Brabham”… those are names I read about in Car & Driver as a kid… cars were named after these men! And the tracks: Silverstone, Riverside, Laguna Seca… storied venues all.
    This is a piece of history, never to be repeated. That it was powered by the little aluminum Buick engine, fed by a quartet of Webers is like icing on the cake. Once again, the offerings on BaT never fail to surprise and amaze.”

    “I have known this DB4 Zagato and it’s sister Zagato 1 VEV since the 1960s at Goodwood and subsequently in the late 1980s when it was local to me and I used to see it driven on the street. Good to see the old warhorse in fine fettle and singing automotive opera….”

    “These are great cars. Very nimble. Really high build quality. 2.8 is silky smooth. I bought a 99, new and still have it. I can’t bear to part with it. There are things I like about it better than all the other Audis that I have.”

    JWHBOOMER commented on M5-Swapped 2002 BMW 540i Sport Wagon 6-Speed

    “I had to chime in as this brought back memories. My dad had one with factory 4 speed and (at least) front disc brakes. Can’t remember the rears. Factory silver with a vinyl roof. That 4 speed was a LONG throw so it took a while to get there. A lot of axle hop. I always thought it would make a great sleeper hotrod with a bit of engine & suspension work. I had no idea how rare the factory options were. Who knew?”

    “Always loved these. I am the person responsible for that front cover photo of Hemmings Muscle Machines. I was the editor of that magazine at the time. That Mopar issue was a ton of work, but satisfying. Beautiful example of when Chrysler actually built cars. Today, just the Pacifica.”

    “IMO….The best wagon ever produced for the money….If serviced and maintained properly, these are pretty much bullet proof….Mine is a black metallic 6 speed with atacama with 205K miles and it drives like it left the factory yesterday!”

    “Mr. Tardel should get AMT to issue a 1/25th scale plastic model of this car. Then I can have one and use up my old tube of Testors glue from 1963.”

    “Oh my God. To find any of these with their original police equipment is one thing. But to find one that was basically never driven? Unheard of.”

    “This 6-series Packard has been a goal to own one – of my Dad and I – our whole lives and finally hope to obtain. This would be for me to enjoy for my retirement.”

    “I own a 1938 Flying Squirrel. The engine number is one digit away from this bike and the frame number is two digits away. When I contacted the Scott Club Registry to authenticate my bike I was advised that 220 Flying Squirrels were produced (500cc and 600cc versions combined) in 1938. The whereabouts of 101 were known. Of those, twenty had the redesigned detachable head as does this bike. GLWTS”
