“I have a similar setup with a Rover 4.0. The all aluminum Rover is 35lbs lighter than the original 4 banger. I’m getting 26 mpg in mine.”

“I went through the police academy in one of these back in 1997. No Crown Vic could out run or out maneuver this car when we played cops and robbers on the obstacle course. It was hands down a superior car in terms of handling and horsepower. Every time I see one I’m taken back to the driving portion of the academy. Fond memories.”

“Love that area of Wisconsin. Two of my three nephews live in Madison now – gorgeous city. We visited often when I was a kid and Pop was into camping with the Starcraft. Made many a stop at Wisconsin Dells and remember it just as you describe! Sincere condolences on the passing of your mother (and untimely/early passage of your father). It reminded me this morning to cherish whatever time I have left with the Beehive. Have a blast with the Honda – another wonderful memory machine for me – and…”

“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 !!!
Dean”

“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!”

“This car was purchased from Ed Jurist By Ted Billings in 1966 after Ed had brought it back from South America. That Engine is supposed to be the backup to the Mormon Meteor and was shipped to Argentina so the car could be raced. That is a real blower looks exactly the same as it did in 1966 when Ted took possession of the car. Leo Gephart did not start making reproduction blowers until the 1970s. This is a a great car with real race history in South America. The 1960s photo of the…”

“H.U.04 took a lot of blood, sweat, and tears to resurrect, but every bit of it was worth it the moment we saw it completely reassembled.
My team, along with @diverdave36 and so many incredible people throughout the vintage Indy community, spent well over 1,000 hours researching, completely disassembling, meticulously cleaning and cataloging every part, and carefully bringing this piece of history back together.
Every minute spent working on a project like this—or even just being in its…”

“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.”

“If you’d told the regulars at Grounds for Divorce that Fort Stockton would one day be blessed—in the biblical sense—by something called a Lamborghini LM002 Wagon by Diomante, they would’ve nodded politely and blamed your condition on dehydration, heatstroke, or Rusty Hammer’s expired beef jerky.
But at 9:42 on a limp Wednesday morning, the impossible happened.
The thing arrived like a rolling oil embargo—silver paint glistening, roofline squared off like a shipping container…”

“A piece of trivia as we enter the final hour:
Next year marks 60 years since the Maserati Ghibli was first unveiled at the 1966 Turin Motor Show.
At just 27 years old, Giorgetto Giugiaro at Ghia created a shape that was lower, wider, and more dramatic than anything else on the road, with its endless bonnet, razor-sharp nose, and clean, unbroken flanks. For Maserati, it marked a commercial turning point: with the rise of the Autostrada era, the Orsi family and engineer Giulio Alfieri set out…”

A few of the comments that stood out to us yesterday:
“Jimmy Don Ventura had owned enough unusual automobiles over the years to believe he understood the public. He’d driven a lime-green AMC Gremlin, a Triumph Spitfire that leaked oil with the determination of an East Texas mosquito, and a Plymouth Barracuda that had once stranded him in front of the Dairy Twin during the lunch rush. Every one of them had attracted comments, questions, and unsolicited mechanical advice from complete strangers.
Then he bought Fred.
Officially, it was a 1949…”
