“The missile appeared at Earl’s Salvage Yard & Formalwear on a Tuesday morning.
At least that was what Hairless B29 called it when he walked into the Grounds for Divorce and announced that Earl had acquired a rocket.
Angus Hopper continued buttering his toast.
“How big?”
“Three feet, maybe.”
Angus looked up. “That ain’t much of a rocket.”
“It’s streamlined.”
This was apparently sufficient evidence to bring Rex Hall into the investigation. By nine…”104

“The Story Here…
As an automotive magazine publisher, editor and motor journalist in the ’80s and ’90s, I was privileged to attend many unique and amazing press functions and receive highly-specialized literature regarding the cars being launched. From the Highlands of Scotland to the South of France. From the US Continental Divide to the jungles and rain forests of Guatemala and Belize. From small back mews of the English Midlands to palatial manor houses in London. What a time it…”9

“I own an’07 Miata. Nothing goes wrong. Maintenance is inexpensive. It’s a total blast to drive top down. New owner here is gonna be happy with the value he/she gets for the $ spent. These are simply GREAT vehicles. GLWTA”

“Driver & passenger sound like two kids in a candy store – can’t blame them.
Awesome ride to take to a track on weekends & I’d do school drop off during the week.”9

“@68Vet
Baja California and back to Sacramento in a slant six Dart? That is an absolute adventure and proof positive that these cars were built for exactly that kind of journey. No drama, no breakdowns, just mile after mile of honest reliable transportation through some pretty unforgiving terrain. That slant six was one of the toughest engines ever bolted into an American car and your story is a perfect reminder of that.
Thank you for sharing that memory and for the kind words. That is…”6

mrliquidity commented on Supercharged 6.2L LT5-Powered 1965 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe
“I’ve seen this beauty in person, and let me tell you—it’s been meticulously maintained and absolutely babied. The owner has taken incredible care of it, keeping it spotless inside and out. Everything runs smoothly, looks sharp, and feels road-ready without a worry. If you’re looking for a motorhome that’s been treated with pride and attention to detail, this one is a rare find. You won’t just be buying a rig—you’ll be getting peace of mind knowing it’s been loved and cared for…”

“What a lovely, and well driven example! Tasteful mods, and miles and miles of future enjoyment for the next lucky owner. I’ve owned my 97 C4S for 15 years, she just rolled 135k, up from 63k at acquisition. These cars are just such an experience, just so immensely satisfying to drive…and to own.
Good luck to the seller, and fair notice to potential bidders….well sorted, long term owner, well “driven” 993’s are more scarce by the year. This car will continue to turn heads, and…”7

“I’d like to thank everyone who joined the conversation. There were many great comments, and I learned a lot about my car. This BaT process has been so cool for me to be a part of. It’s just been fun – maybe the only fun way to let go of this car. Here are a few last pics. Thank you all!!”

“I worked on the development of these back at the start of my career as an engineer with Isuzu in Cerritos, CA. The prototype from Japan was purple and RHD which got lots of stares and thumbs up Super fun cars to drive. Drove it to Lake Tahoe through many fun roads. Handled pretty well for a SUV.”

“One of my long-time car friends is a national champion level modeler. When my wife and I married his wedding gift to us was a custom-built diorama of a C-Type Jaguar at le Mans. Remains my second favorite gift from the wedding (my wife’s unending love is the most favorite).
There have been far too many years passed since I build a car or airplane model. I have quite a few unbuilt kits on the shelf, I need to either get building or move them along.”11

“I almost bought one of these in silver blue 45+ years ago but my dog could not stand up in the back so I bought a used Audi Fox wagon (think VW Dasher) instead.
I’m excited to have this opportunity to own one now. I was impressed with the Sellers response and candid video talk. I’m unsure if I’ll meet the Seller but I want to thank you.

“Like others, hopefully you will take this to the Historics and let it eat! I spectate and enjoy getting to see the first car I ever drove on a road course – the #78 Boss 302 Matthews car that you would be running with if you go. The guy that restored it barely knew me and still let me run it in the Cobra Club novice group around 35 years ago now that I think about it! Changed my life – drag raced one more time after that before putting fat tires all around on my 70 Fastback 🙂 Guy that has…”

“It’s been years, but I saw a similar one in Madison, WI. The owner and buddy drove up from the Chicago area – a 2 hour interstate highway drive. They had leather goggles and huge smiles behind the little windscreens. The Ferrari was specked with bugs and road dirt and looked utterly amazing. What a day for those guys. A pleasure for the show attendees as well. Someone is going to have fun with this 212 beauty. Let ‘er rip!
I was thinking about the Chicago guys trip up the interstate. There…”27

“Beautiful spyder! These are the best kept secret of the modern Porsche world. For those seeking a manual, 8k redline 4 liter naturally aspirated roaster that is the right size, and rare, look no further. As a fellow 718 Spyder owner, I feel these cars were a love letter to all things we love about Porsches.. GLWA!”

“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…”
