JAY-Z commented on No Reserve: 1970 Ford LTD Country Squire

“I have learned Ford did offer a 427ci Auto Trans 1968 Cougar but soon after they replaced that engine with the 428ci Cobra Jet. Wow… this is huge! What a find to locate it here. Some lucky bidder will get a vary rare beautiful automobile.”

“I’m a tech at Colonial Toyota in Milford and saw this car come in the shop for service and the pictures do not do it justice on how incredible clean this car is, it’s in damn near showroom condition. Our whole shop was infatuated with this car. Our service writer Dwayne, was worried that it wouldn’t get done in time because we couldn’t stop drooling over it 😂 GLWS”

“I have to admire the audacity and the laissez faire attitude! “…also notes “moderate damage” from a July 2014 accident in which the vehicle overturned” suggests that the owner approaches this Civic as Jeremy Clarkson approaches Reliant Robins.”

hymanltd commented on 8-Mile, One-Owner 2006 Ford GT Heritage Edition

“It has been a genuine privilege to have this extraordinary 113-year-old racing motorcycle on display in my collection. It stands as far more than a rare machine—it is a tangible reminder of the ingenuity, craftsmanship, and determination of the pioneers who built it.
This motorcycle is a testament to what skilled hands, creative minds, and unwavering perseverance could accomplish more than a century ago.
Yet the motorcycle tells only part of the story.
It also pays tribute to the fearless…”

Moviethings commented on 1913 Excelsior 7SC Board Track Racer

“As the former owner of XS004 and a serial collector of special Fox Body Mustangs, you can’t find many more special than a KB car. If I had the room I’d be going after this under full boost! GLWTA!”

“i dont like the red interior i love it – its going to be driven like a b series civic”

Jds8811 commented on 1996 Porsche 911 Gunther Werks 400R Sport Touring #1

“As a retired Aerospace Engine-nerd, I can relate to this car and the OCD of the prior owners/family. This one won’t be restored nor turned for profit, but it will be driven in the desert southwest and turn over 100,000 miles within a year or so. I drive ’em, I don’t show them or brag about them. Enjoy your cars folks! We ain’t gettin’ any younger, time goes so quickly.
Enjoy your day. God Bless.”

HalfGlass commented on One-Family-Owned 1968 Plymouth Road Runner Hardtop

“Awesome car. I love pic 149 because it tells a story of what likely happened to most radio delete Camaros in the early 80s when these cars were cheap enough to be purchased by teenagers who would not be caught dead in a car with no tunes. I can see the kid with his dad’s hacksaw, tin snips and pliers lying on his back in that trunk going to town. A couple hours later, with his brand new Jensen Tri-Axials installed, he’s cruising around town with tunes blaring. Radio delete option be damned!!”

RSGarm commented on 1969 Chevrolet Camaro Z/28 4-Speed

“Dave the owner of this car, hosted the Chicago chapter of the Alfa Club at his shop, The Giulietta Studio, last weekend for our annual swap meet. I got to see this car in person, and all I can say is WOWW!! This car is spectacular. Down to details like proper hose clamps, it’s just done so nicely and correctly. Not that you’ll need it, but GLWTA!”

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

“A Volvo PV544 has been my dream car since I was a teenager. I belong to a women’s vintage car club here on the CA Central Coast called the Highway Honeys. “Lemondrop” as I am calling this beauty would be a perfect addition to my life!”

Wonderwomanenf commented on 1966 Volvo 544

“One of America’s coolest four door sedans ever built, in a beautiful rare color, in excellent condition. Wow!”

JayKay2430 commented on No Reserve: 16k-Mile 2003 Mercury Marauder

“A rare Terminator here. Only 610 Redfire ‘verts rolled off the assembly line in ’03, and only 196 of those had the Parchment Suede seat inserts. GLWA!”

Z282SLO commented on 30k-Mile 2003 Ford Mustang SVT Cobra Convertible

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

“This is an amazing survivor that has been lovingly cared for by the family. The pictures remind me of the pictures I have of my Mom and Dad in front of Dad’s late thirties Harley in their leather motorcycle jackets, over the calf motorcycle boots, and riding pants. They rode from Indiana to the west coast and to Florida a couple of times. A hardy pair.”

Crw53 commented on Eighty-Years-Family-Owned 1936 Ford Model 68 Deluxe 3-Window Coupe Hot Rod

“So the car will be staying here in Washington. I live in Steilacoom which is not far from where the car is at now. It will be joining my 1982 spider, very excited to get this car.”

peterlamirande commented on 1972 Fiat 124 Sport Coupe

“No power windows. No power locks. No power seats. No heated seats. No radio. No ABS. No GPS. No airbags. No A/C. No Bluetooth. No cruise control. No intermittent wipers.
No problem.”

misterdangerpants commented on No Reserve: 1991 Honda Civic Hatchback 4-Speed

“@PWSchuh Great observation! This Ace has lived a full life on the track since 1964, and the current suspension reflects how it was dialed in for competition. It handled the turns at Lime Rock and the Hershey Hillclimb beautifully with this setup. While it’s a blast to drive on the street now, the new owner can always revert to a stock alignment. We wanted to show the car with the ‘soul’ of its racing history intact!”
