Centurion Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 Joe, these are beautiful cars and great photos.The '73 Riviera would have made a wonderful companion piece to your '73 Regal! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TG57Roadmaster Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 Joe,I attended the Astor Auction with some friends from L.A., and took loads of pictures that day, too. So much eye candy crossing the block, it was hard to keep up! I've misplaced my photos, so thanks for sharing these. TG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There would also have been some sibling rivalry in the garage too.Joe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I know how it feels. Being sent to you via e-mail are pictures of cars at the Astor Auction which includes some Brand "X" ones too.Joe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chuckfmtexas Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 Hi Joe, just sent you a PM on your earlier PM to me. Now that I see the photo of the ASTOR 73 Riv GS and would love to have both exterior and interior photos.Thanks,Chuck Nixon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thriller Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 The styling of the '47 is really growing on me. There is a sedanette from around that time frame in these parts. I don't often get to see the owner, but he knows I have some interest should he ever decide to part with it. Of course, I'm doing such a good job of getting to my existing projects....
