“I am beyond excited. My dad owned a 1974 TR6 in this same color when I was a kid. I learned to drive on it. It is going to a good home.”

“Hi:
I’m Bob Gunthorp. I have a 1959 190b Binz station wagon Binz body number 1540. It is registered as a 1963. I purchased it in 1984. They are a fun car to drive and they attract attention everywhere that you take them. In 2012 I showed the wagon at the Mercedes-Benz Club National StarFest event in Phoenix AZ. The wagon is a “driver” car and not 100 point restoration. To both my surprise and amazement the wagon received the judge’s choice award.
Bob G.”

“I had one of these ‘beasts’ back in the 1970s, nowhere as nice as this Mercedes. I terrorized northern Virginia & the D.C. area for several years…..it sounded like a washing-machine full of marbles & smoked like I was spraying for locusts! But that Benz ran for ever, even on kerosene!
I wound up trading it for a Nikon motor-drive camera. My Mercedes wound up as ‘yard-art’ in Annapolis, Maryland…..but that diesel engine ran for years operating hoist equipment on a ‘waterman’s’…”

“Stunning car! The 5 speed transaxle fitted to Boras was also used in other cars- the deTomaso Mangusta and Pantera, Ford GT40s, BMW M1s.. perhaps others I’m not aware of. A robust unit of considerable versatility, it is still in production in the USA by RBT Inc. The ZF 5DS-25 (its actual name) has been through several revisions, including adding a sixth speed, I think. Its only vice is that it’s hard to obtain and when you can, it costs STACKS of money.”

“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…”

“@WIZZZZ
I met Fred at Bonneville in 1963. He had set a 2-way record the previous year at 99.06 mph with his absolutely stock Corvair Monza. I had managed to go 107 mph with my stock 61 Corvair but needed bigger tires. Fred told me that Rambler Station Wagons had 15″ wheels that would fit Corvairs. There was a little junk yard on the outskirts of Wendover, Utah right on the state border with Nevada. I went down there and found a Nash Rambler in there with two 6.40 X 15″ tires (1 was…”

“Last summer the Eastern PA Chapter of the Audi Club did it’s annual covered bridges drive and ice cream run. A very fun and spirited ~150 mile drive. I show up in my 1989 80 Quattro, my wife drove our 2001 TT 225 Roadster, and a guy I had never seen before at any Audi event shows up in one of these. Jaws dropped. He was super nice, down to earth, and had no problem with any of us getting in and checking it out.”

“These cars are just great. I bought a 2024 manual on a whim last year and have zero regrets. They do it all so well. My fair weather daily drivers last summer were this Golf, a 2018 GT3 Touring, and my venerable 993. For regular use, the Golf is ~80% of the fun of the GT3 for 20% of the money. Sold the GT3 shortly thereafter just because I prefer the Golf. Will never sell the 993, though.”

“My heart skipped a beat when I saw this. My first job out of college was working for TDM in Livonia MI which later became Wheel to Wheel a prototype shop for GM’s Jon Moss. We built a 383 6spd SS with a rollcage for GM Special Vehicles to do high speed testing at MIS. I don’t think this is that car but always wondered what happened to it and many others. Great first engineering job for a young gear head.”

“Anecdotally, I was told by the head of Porsche Museum (at the time) Dieter Labdsburger, that they took the Abarth to the wind tunnel and a standard 356, and found out that the Abarth, that they paid a lot of money for for further development in aerodynamics, was less aerodynamic than the stock version! I think this example is simply beautiful, tastefully done, and without the aerodynamic drag of the car it was trying to emulate…. but retaining the lovely engine lid. I will be watching….…”

“When I was a new pilot in a Navy Fighter Squadron, one of my favorite “older” Squadron mates used to have get togethers at his house. He had a bar in his kitchen /living room and at the end was his lucky ejection seat that he had used when he was an F-8 pilot. He had the seat built in and only HE was allowed to ever sit in that “lucky” seat! Good memories.”

“I’ve owned two of these. My first was a brand new fawn beige 283 4bbl that I drove 60,000 miles in three years. I had the dealer add GM seat belts. It was completely trouble free. Mine originally came with the spare tire tucked under the top well. About a year into it Chevrolet had a recall to move it to the right rear quarter panel are as this car shows. People were cutting the rear window and stealing the spare tires. I still have the original window sticker. A beautiful car.”

“Hello old friend. I say this because this car brings back very fond memories and was the one that started my lifelong fascination with cars. It was in the garage in the back yard when I was in elementary school!
My dad was Otto Klein. He bought this car from Jim Hall when Hall showed up at Elkhart Lake with two of them! I think he paid about $6k for it if my memory serves. My dad had a VW dealership in Springfield, Illinois and started out racing bathtub Porches and a few Ferraris. This car…”

“The 8C is one of my favorite cars ever. We do have a 4C in the stable and it is loads of fun, handles like it is attached to the road, and makes funny grunting noises….not a car to tour in though, unless your idea of a tour is to visit a local vineyard 8 miles away.
The 8C has noble bones and as a previous share stated, has easy access to critical parts.
Plus the car is just beautiful. Nobody knows how to predict valuations. I went all in on my 355’s and that has proven to be a lucky…”

Original engine and transmission guarantees entry into your event of choice. This is truly a once in a lifetime find. Good Luck to all!”

“The original owner of this Maserati was Stan Nowak, more famous as one of the earliest of the Ferrari historians here in the States. He told me decades ago he took delivery in West Nyak but sold it just a few months later to raise money for an early Ferrari that had recently been uncovered.
He told me to keep an eye out for it and said it would be easy to find by the chassis number “502.”
He passed away not long thereafter and I never did track it down until about ten years ago when I…”
