A few of the comments that stood out to us yesterday:
“in all this auction excitement, I’ve devoted a certain amount of my morning coffee time searching the internet for my own Ferrari 288 GTO – a number of which are thankfully within my price range, including Walmart, for about $100.
However, due to their scaled down 1:18 size and non-running status, it’s unlikely I’ll be driving it anywhere other than “my imagination” during this lifetime.
Perhaps my NEXT lifetime.”

“Another interesting fact thanks to Andy is this car was shipped on August 17, 1965 and delivered to Hayward Motors in CA and on the deliver truck were two additional 350’s as well as a prototype GT40….now that would be a cool truck to see driving down the road!!! This car is a statement piece and one of the true great American muscle cars.”

“Fantastic listing, beautiful wagon. Every time I look through the gallery it brings back memories of the days of wooden picnic baskets and surfboards with the family, when times were just a tad slower. @bosshoss3406pack thank you for the tag, great memories with this one.”

“Oh my… not sure if anyone remembers the ’67 Plymouth GTX ads in Hot Rod magazine. Roasting the rear tires?
I do… and wanted one ever since!”

“The 430 HP was NOT underated as often quoted ….This was virtually a race track engine with a wild solid lifter camshaft and open chamber heads with 12:1 compression ratio….all geared for high end horsepower …
Yes, the engine produced 430 HP at 5200 RPM’s but Chevy failed to mention it produced
Over 550 HP at 6200 RPM’s
The “low” HP published at a time when insurance companies were taking a close look at high performance cars”
