Did anyone at the HAMB buy anything at the Icons of Speed and Style auction?

I want to see photos under those Hershey kisses street lites in PA...........if ya want you can leave the La Jolla here in Tucson with me so ya dont have to worry about the cold and rust getting to it heh heh heh

 

I'm so happy for you! Too bad it won't be here in time for us to cruise during Hershey

When you are ready to pass it on to a new home you have my number

 

Watson's T Bird went to a HAMB'r

 

So many great deals...I was amazed at some of the buys.

Congrats Holly! Couldn't go to a better home.

yups, I picked up the Von Dutch Lathe, nailhead dragster, and the Lincoln V12 intake. Prices were awfully low for most of that stuff. good deals. I figured many of those cars would bring a lot more money, but seemed like there were more spectators than buyers... The damn dragster was just too cheap, the parts alone are worth a hell of a lot more than that...

 

a buddy of mine was considering going to the auction....but after the Tweedy Pie sold for over $300K he figured stuff would be craaaaazy

I have not told him yet there were really good deals there

I suspect he will cry

 

Pretty Damn Cool to see so many HAMBers bought cars and parts.With Ralph being a member on here it's like they are still a part of the family.

 

$31,900.00

 

snapped a pic of my new shirt from the auction...

 

Coby - Do you think that belonged to Oscar Kovaleski, from Auto World and PRDA? Awesome, either way........

 

Good for her! Hope to meet her at Hershey next week.

 

Yes. It was Oscar's shirt. It came with a couple Auto World stickers from 1967, 3 photocopied letters of correspondence between Oscar and Ed. 2 photos of Ed (one with Oscar), and all the info from the ebay purchase when Ralph purchased it.

 

Yes i know, infact it was "bobber" and not bobber!
I personally thought that a bobber truck was another thing, kinda ratty,
and that the Rudys truck is totally neat!

Adonis for 30K???????? La Jolla for 24??????
What the hell!
Im happy for you guys! really!

 

$24,000....I should have gone...

 

Does anyone know who bought or where Rudy's old truck went? Just curious....

 

Met up with Mark Moriarity last night at the Mtka. Drive-In (last night of the season). He's pretty happy about getting the Mega Cycle back in his possesion. Just not sure where he' going to put it. Told him he will have to add on to his house, to add it to his collection!

 

Yeah, I told him I would "store" any of his pieces at my place for as long as he needed.......I've got a doorwall so something could go inside the house. I wanna be just like Mark when I grow up.

 

Me too! ..oh wait,Im never growin up!!!!!!!!

 

Just a question: Did the Deora go to a Museum, or private owner?

 

Since Holly doesn't get on here to often, and I specificly asked her if it was bought for the museum or for herself, and she answered it's all hers!

 

Holly bought Harry Bradley's La Jolla, not the Deora truck. The question remains......

 

See that's what I get for trying to work and surf the HAMB at the same time.

 

I think you got the order backwards #1 Surf HAMB, #2 work

 

The Deora went to a good home in the Detroit MI area. A guy who has a nice car collection and usually has his toys at Autorama, Woodward...

 

Anyone know where the valley custom 40 ford went? I hope it ends up in a museum...

 

is this the same guy that has a monkeemobile and really drives it???

 

If I had to guess who it was, and I really don't know, but I would guess it would be "Mr Sha-boom" from Dearborn as he has a large car collection of alot of iconic customs. He was not at the auction but he could have had someone bid for him, or done it online or phone. He also drives alot of his on a regular bases and shows them at the Detroit Autorama.

He's having a large party in a couple of weeks. I'll make sure I peak under all the car covers.
