Yesterday’s comments of note

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

“Thks auction has brought back some memories for me. Back in the mid/late fifties my parents had a 1952 Buick Roadmaster woody wagon, maroon with maroon leather interior. It was may fathers favorite car out of many Buicks he had owned. On many warm Sunday afternoons my parents would load me and my brother in the Buick along with a pick nick basket, and sometimes a cocker spaniel, and we’d go for drive. Often the drive took us to a place here in the hills of north central Pennsylvania know as…”

“One of the coolest daily drivers of all time. A wagon with a supercharged v8. The six-speed manual is the cherry on top. GLWTA!”

“I was a teenager HS student working at the corner service station. We had a local Dr that had one of these, his was the beautiful dark blue with matching padded top. He would pull in for gas, 27 gallon tank. After putting the car in “Park” he would tilt the wheel which would almost go horizontal on these and throw a small towel that covered the wheel from rim edge to edge. Gas up. Then………the fun would begin! Around to the car wash. Customers would be directed into the wash at the correct…”

“Wow! If your drove this in 1966 you were a very successful owner-operator with great taste! That’s an extra long WB too meant for specialized loads. I watched the videos to see any sign of power steering so only Armstrong steering? My family was in the trucking business (in many aspects) and worked at a Kenworth store in NJ in the clean up bay. Much like old vs modern pickup trucks, they had evolved from bare bones working vehicles to modern, comfortable places to be. GLWTA #keepontruckin”

“Never mind the Firestones, this is very reminiscent of the B.F. Goodrich TireBird. Awesome build!
It’s been a great weekend for second-generation Firebirds. Keep them coming.

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

“Awesome to see another very early production boss! Curious as to when it initially was sold. I own 2013 Boss 302 #0003 in grabber blue. I purchased it in March 2012 from Al Packer Whit Marsh Ford in MD. They had no idea what the production number was and of course I never mentioned it until after I purchased it, then I received a call a few weeks later asking if I’d sell it back or trade it back for another boss plus cash. I declined. I do have more miles on mine, around 9k. Drove it from NJ to…”

“Brings back wonderful memories !!
One of my best friends ordered a ‘63 Galaxie 500 XL Oxford Blue convertible with the 406/405 Tri-Power engine …By the time it arrived it had the new upgraded 427/425 Dual Quad engine..I can vividly remember the first time opening the hood and seeing those chrome valve covers marked 427-T ….I believe the “T” was for transistor ignition.
The ‘63 Galaxie has always been my favorite Ford, especially the
“R” code Fastback version.”

“A lot of the old GN racers, like me, will remember this car. Glad to see it’s still got all the original livery on it, as it’s a history making ride! Will be watching this one!”

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

“Take that front light bar off and scenes from Laurel and Hardy movies come immediately to mind. Nothing left but a pile of Model T parts. The bar holds the entire car together.
I can find black touch up paint, it’s the alligator finish that’s difficult to achieve. Apparently it needs 100 years to set up.”

“I owned SN 5077 many years ago. The 4-liter engine pulls like a locomotive. There is comfortable seating for 4 adults. I think it is the best of the 2+2 classic Ferraris. You will never regret owning it. – Keith Martin”

“They need to start building basic truck trucks again instead of the expensive four door behemoths that are used as cars but get crappier mileage. This is a perfect basic utility truck.”

“My brother did the original design sketches of this limousine and the 356 panel truck for John Dixon. He still has all of his original art. John received photo copies of the original art to give to the builder to work from.”
