Barnfind L29 Cord... still has the WW2 gas rations sticker on the windshield

the story of the car, stored and not touched since 1952, all 60 years of sitting there were because some kids vandalized it and broke the heart of the guy who had just bought it, and galleries of photos at http://www.l-29cord.com/html/perry1.html

1966 Charger funny car on Ebay today, 1964 426 hemi, some parts, all in bad shape, but made of unobtainium

this might be a score, or a money pit. No idea. I bet his reserve is 100k

For sale 1966 charger funny car, this the first year for the fiberglass flopper body, this body was made by Fiber Glass Limited in Stone Park, Illinois. With what I have researched they have only made 11 bodies in 66. These bodies were originally made with a 1 piece nose, two doors and the body. I don't know the history of this car, all the parts you see in the pictures came with the car. Things I do know about the parts, the block is a 64 426 hemi and the heads are 65 Aloca K-Heads, the block has been machined and ready for assembly, the block has been repaired but has been pressured tested good, the heads looked in very poor condition. I had the heads completely re-freshed with new seats and stainless valves. I have crank, rods, and misc. parts for engine. I have torqueflight, tranz and the rear end is an olds with 488 spool and Mickey Thompson case.  Also I have the frame that came with the car which is included in the auction but would not have been original to the car. 

Any Questions call Randy (626)  297-9230

Thanks Jay!

Plymouth dealership inflateable road runner that was in the car when bought, sold on Ebay, and Jay got it for a good price

This is the first time I've ever seen one of these, or heard of it... anyone ever seen a dealership promo inflatable Road Runner bird before? 

A family stored a custom LeBaron lwb sedan '32 Stutz for 73 years, because WW2 limited supplies of tires meant the owner had to store it, and drive his Nash for commuting. So it got stored away, and never hit the road again, only 23,000 miles

one of the largest car collections is getting sold off in part, here are a couple of the unique vehicles to hit the block

the oldest surviving Ford sold, a 1903 rear entry tonneau

a 1900 Milwaukee steam runabout

1919 Renault torpedo

1933 Packard 12 convertible sedan, body by Dietrich

found on http://www.bornrich.com/john-oquinns-car-collection-sale-hershey-auction.html

the first (only) Tucker I've seen at a car show

A very unique interior, and this is the first time I've been able to take photos with good light

 with such a small dashboard, the radio was installed on the side of it. That shifter us normally seen in Terraplanes and a couple French cars... but is a cool looking design and might have been why it was used to sell the cars for Preston. Small and efficient, unusual enough to be eye catching, and works well with the levers on the far side of the  instrument cluster

Behind this small rear quarter panel grill, is the fuel filler door. Good hiding spot.

6 exhaust pipes and big grill for a tail panel because it has a 6 cylinder air cooled helicopter engine if I remember correctly

Ivan's bike, coolest story I've read in weeks

 Click on the above image for the full size so it's easier to read

Flares and Chairs, a rare Dino GT. 1 of 5

 damn. The paint color and lighting were great coming off the curves of this Dino.

One you've likely never heard of, a Brazilian VW SP2

In the 1970's Brazil wasn't allowing imported sports cars, and VW brazil had some autonomy from VW of Germany, and built these. 

Ford Maverick Stallion, in 1976, was the pace car at a local San Diego race track

1966 Berlinetta Willys Interlagos, one of 4 in the USA according to the owner, out of only 822 made in Brazil

for more info http://www.conceptcarz.com/vehicle/z16174/Willys-Interlagos.aspx but in brief, Willys Overland of Brazil licensed the Renault Alpine 108, and built them from 1962-1966

This cars owner left a comment, and thanks! telling us that this one is one of maybe 4, 2 are intact, one is derelict, and the 4th is rumoured to be a cabriolet in Long Beach.
