“Wow, what a stance on this spectacular F100 bumpside 4×4. The two-tone color scheme is awesome! Interior is nice and the engine is clean. Truly a cool build here!”

“The gap between the order date and the serialized date on the Marti report reminds me that Ford workers went on strike in the fall of 1976.
I had factory ordered a new Econoline 150 around the same time as this Bronco and I took delivery in January of 1977. My van was the same Midnight Metallic Blue as this Bronco. A Great color”

“So I have taking a break from BaT for a while and thought what the heck, let’s see what’s happening. Wow, this amazing 928 and an honest to goodness perfect Mangusta. Holy moly welcome back!”

“Happy she’s coming back to Southern California to a big Ford family. She’ll even get track time and driven regularly.”

“She’s a beauty, the subtle differences that come with the Sport Edition add up to make the final years of the 3rd gen really special, especially when wrapped in a great color like Millennium Silver Metallic or Thunder Cloud Metallic.
Being one owner west coast well documented is the icing on the cake and guarantees an exciting ending……and let’s not forget No Reserve!”

“V6 6 speed is super under appreciated. They don’t make ‘em like they used to.”

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

“When I bought my ’23 XC60 T8 through Volvo’s Overseas Delivery program, the V60 was not offered, else I would’ve bought it. I sprung for the Polestar engineered upgrade and extended range battery (up to 50 miles on a charge), as well as air suspension (that lowers the car about 3 inches when I click “Polestar Mode.” Just here to say that this drivetrain — super charger +turbo + electric motor + Polestar tuning is absolutely mad! Mine kicks out 455 bhp and is just so damn fun to drive. Passing…”

“This generation of Mondial is SO easy and inexpensive to maintain. Belt replacement is engine in, same for the clutch. This should be emphasized because in the Ferrari world, this is unusual.”

MajorMinor commented on 1983 Ferrari Mondial Quattrovalvole Coupe

“This gem is coming from a great owner and I hope it remains just as well loved by its next caretaker. Good luck all!
@Valiantjim I have the first SPEED World Challenge SRT-4 that 3R Racing campaigned in 05/06. I have good memories from those days.”

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

“I’m a Corvette girl. I grew up with a dad who restored them. His first Corvette was a ’57 that he used to race. He decided to make it street legal in the mid ’60’s and had it on the road 3 days when a lady ran a stop sign and busted up the front end. He put a new front end on it, and it’s been sitting in the garage waiting to be restored for the past 50ish years. I’m 50 and it’s always looked a bit like this Elva, though the undercarriage and the body are pristine–just raw because it’s been in…”

“I’ve been fortunate to own some really nice Ducati’s. My 996 SPS was one of my favorite bikes. Tons of linear power, killer exhaust note and just a joy to ride. Beautiful bike presented here @DesmoquattroRestorations”

“My father and I test drove this exact colour combination 300SD when it was brand new in Vancouver British Colombia. He pulled over half way into the test drive and asked if I wanted to drive it. He recently passed away and when I saw this car it took me back to that moment in my life and it made me smile.”

“If I could only own one vehicle for the rest of my life, and could never switch it… this is what I would get.
-Stupid reliable.
-Powerful enough to explore in the mountains and pull a boat to the lake.
-Always classy. Always adventurous.
-Good for one person, and good for a family.
-Safe.
-Enough tech to be convenient, but not too much to get in the way.”

overlandish commented on 2021 Toyota Land Cruiser URJ200 Heritage Edition

“This is a stunning car with amazing history! The fact that Jim Froula of Racecraft has done the recent work on it makes me feel very good. I race my Datsun 510 in the historic B Sedan class against many of the cars supported by Jim at vintage events. The cars under his tent are always extremely well prepared, highly competitive, and generally with great history. I’m in. Let’s see where this baby ends up. Would love to keep it in the West Coast but I suspect the European bidders know quite…”

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

“I’ve always thought the ’69 Camaro is one of the most perfectly styled cars of the era, particularly as an RS Z/28. @BlackMountainMotorworks did the right thing by including a number of side profile photos. (Surprising how many sellers don’t!) The color on this one is fantastic, worthy of a poster.
Being an early Trans Am Series fan I was thrilled to get close to the Penske/Donahue #6 racer at an 80’s Walter Mitty. I have a packet of photos I keep aside so I can easily remind myself.…”

Valiantjim commented on 1969 Chevrolet Camaro Z/28 Coupe 4-Speed

“I remember this model. It signaled to many that Hyundai was becoming a serious car company, at a time when some early Excels were still running around leaving clouds of blue oil smoke behind them. The Tiburon could have had Honda badges and nobody might have been the wiser.
Oh, one little “cheeky” thing, as the Brits like to say. Notice the faux intake runners on that plastic engine cover. (Photo #104.) At casual glance, it’s suggesting that the engine is in there longitudinally, perhaps even…”

“WOODIE TRIP — DIARY OUTTAKES | DAY FIFTEEN – FINAL DAY
Wednesday , September 6th
The trip from Alpine home was the hardest part. Hugh kept driving faster and faster, and we were so anxious to get there. The only notes I have read like this: “Can finally sit down on the toilet seat!! No more wake-up calls. No unpacking and packing car every day. We’re home!!!””
