“The CKD cars assembled in Belgium were for tax purposes. The cars were shipped “body in white” with the drivetrain out of the car and no interior trim installed. Final assembly and paint were done in Belgium and avoided import taxes somewhere around 30%.
While no production records from Belgium have survived, the TR Registry has obtained shipping manifests that lists vin numbers and engine serial numbers along with the dates they went. As the cars were shipped to Belgium in small…”

“For those wondering, here’s the lowdown. This car completes my 69 Chevy SS matching numbers collection. They’re getting so hard to find and I had the privilege of driving this one last week. Well represented by the seller and I have my own body shop. Its new home is 100 miles west of the seller in Washington State. It will be restored to factory spec. Thanks for reading.”

“As I remember, even the US spec lights were pretty good on these, very bright long range high beams. For all those who know 504D’s, this is as good as you’re going to get in the states.”

“As per the driving video – this car still has less squeaks and rattles than any Lamborghini Diablo”

“Ah, the memories! This was my first-ever brand new car, purchased in Petersburg, Virginia when this fresh Army Quartermaster second lieutenant received a small fortune (It seemed so at the time) from the Army in TDY pay and turned it into Kenosha metal. Mine had the 343 not the 390, but was exactly this color, same transmission, and the brown leather which was original to this car, too. The car accompanied me to my first–and only–duty station in West Germany because officers’ car-shipping was…”

“I had an opportunity to buy a friends 51 Mercury sled, I always wanted from his wife. Gary died in March 2026 from prostate cancer, he was 77, I’m 75. I just don’t have indoor storage for both so the Caddy has to go. I enjoyed it for a year so somebody can have fun with the top down!”

“This is my car. I have had every generation of 911, air cooled and water cooled, turbo and NA, all of which are in various states of “hot rod”. Even my CGT has some mods. I bought this car to hot rod as well, but it was so mint that I couldn’t do it, it is truly flawless inside and out. However, my OCD got the best of me and I invested whatever was needed to make the car perfect and decided to let it go as an offering to the BAT community. @hoarsche enjoy!”

“When I look at this listing I can feel Anne’s arms around my waist. Both of us sixteen. Laughing with each other as we sped around sludgoville on those hot summer nights back in ’77 on the bike I picked up for a couple-hundred bucks from a buddy who needed the cash. No helmets. No leathers. Just being kids who thought we were immortal. These days I’m holding on to those moments of youth you can never really hold on to, only remember. But tonight, on this silly website, I can still smell her…”

“3.8L in a car that weighs as much as a Slim Jim?
Yes please!
Some cars come with engines….some engines come with cars.
One of the most exciting E21s featured on BaT.”

“Those roof air intakes are SO COOL!
It must have been so much fun being a car designer during this era. Styling and thinking of the next big thing was the competitive differentiator then. And let’s not forget about the space age influence that began to appear in the late 50s.
Nice car and restoration @seller.”

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

“In many respects the Z432 is like the 911 Carrera RS 2.7.
Very rare, look nearly identical to their garden variety siblings and the high desirability is based all around the engine.
Having a production car in 1972 with a redline of 7500-rpm was insane and the technology that went into that cylinder head was something the Europeans were not even doing until the next decade.
To some degree Nissan did themselves in, as the L-series grew to a 2.8L, a modified L28 could easily outgun a 432.…”

“This 6-series Packard has been a goal to own one – of my Dad and I – our whole lives and finally hope to obtain. This would be for me to enjoy for my retirement.”

“I own a 1938 Flying Squirrel. The engine number is one digit away from this bike and the frame number is two digits away. When I contacted the Scott Club Registry to authenticate my bike I was advised that 220 Flying Squirrels were produced (500cc and 600cc versions combined) in 1938. The whereabouts of 101 were known. Of those, twenty had the redesigned detachable head as does this bike. GLWTS”
