  1. Thank you once again, sebastienbuick, for letting me "attend" yet another car show in France..
  2. Thank you for sharing these pictures-always good to be able to "attend" a car show on the other coast..
  3. This is proof one shouldn't smoke crack before listing a car on FB Marketplace..
  4. Love seeing dealership buildings that survive. Thank you for sharing.
  5. Wow, some GREAT pictures..Thank you for letting all of us virtually attend this show-always good to see cars from a different part of the country..
  6. Guilty!...my yet to be restored '59 Fiat Jolly last Halloween..
  7. Thank you for sharing these pics, 63RedBrier
  8. It's a warm South Florida morning, but the perfect time for a quick spin...all original including paint, and I'm leaving her that way, flaws and all...
  9. It doesn't look like anything Delage that I'm aware of or have seen. Neat, though, and I have a '34 D6-11S
  10. Wow, haven't heard Wally's name for a while. I remember him well, operating, along with Charlie Coney, Autoland in Hobe Sound, Florida, an early collector car dealership. And Wally loved '34 Fords.
  11. This result looked a little weak, but I'm no Duesenberg expert. Have to say, really enjoy watching the Gooding auction-their auctioneer, Charlie Ross, is great.
  12. The Rolls Royce Silver Cloud II used in the original 'Burke's Law' television series. Might have a little favoritism, though 😂
  13. This is the Bulgari car, pre restoration... https://cars.bonhams.com/auction/23555/lot/210/1934-nash-ambassador-eight-1297-five-passenger-lwb-broughamchassis-no-522564engine-no-522564/
  14. It's (I'm pretty sure) a 1934 Nash Ambassador Brougham Model 1297. Also fairly certain it's not the same car that is featured in this month's AACA, owned and recently by the NB collection This car was also two-tone blue in color, but the combination is a bit different than the (pre-restored) Bulgari car. This car also had sidemounts, as well as a few other differences. It was in the South Florida area at least throughout the 70's. Does anyone know of it's whereabouts today?
  15. I was always under the impression that these period headlights were called "Woodlites", but I now know Woodlites are completely different..This is the second Hudson I've seen this style headlights fitted on. Were these period accessory headlights, or a Hudson offering? Anyone know the name of the headlights?
  16. WANTED: A set of top irons for a '35 Ford Roadster project. Incorrect cabriolet top irons came with the car, so correct roadster top irons needed...Thank you...
  17. I found this Panhard & Levassor double-sided porcelain sign, roughly 42" in diameter. Panhard et Levassor was a well known early higher-end French automobile manufacturer. Pre-war production of the Panhard et Levassor ceased in 1940, and the name was shortened to Panhard when production resumed after the war. So the sign dates to at least 1940, and, more than likely, the mid-thirties. Amazing that it survived the hostilities of the war. Only at Hershey!
  18. The Studebaker Avanti is a stunning automobile, and looks attractive in that color. Ok, maybe I'm a bit biased..
  19. It was a devastating hurricane. The pictures are absolutely heartbreaking. A reminder that life is so fragile. The Revs Institute in Naples has crossed my mind several times today. Have not heard how it fared.
  20. Legislative vigilance is key. One should never assume that any proposed or pending legislation is completely innocuous, nor necessarily completely harmful to our hobby, despite what is claimed. But one thing to keep foremost in our collective minds as hobbyists is that there is now an entirely new social mindset to the environment vs. automobile equation, and that, coupled with a smaller number of younger automobile enthusiasts than in previous generations (potential voters that legislators might factor in as part of their decision making) could make legislation that could be detrimental to our hobby much easier to find its way into our lives. Nothing political, just facts. Again, legislative vigilance is key.
  21. Looking for one (preferably) Denman 700 X 17 wide whitewall tire, but other brands okay with whitewall width pictured. Just using for driver's sidemount spare. Thank you.
