    Close to the beginning of this video the Parker Brothers game of Dealer's Choice was shown, My mother gave me that same game as a birthday present in 1972, and I still have it today................As for the auction cars and trucks I admired all of them for their condition and low mileage readings. I would have to say my favourite cars there were the Toronados.

      Those were the two that caught my eye and I woulda bought both if I’d known about this. They both bring back so many memories I can’t tell ya!! I was about 11 or so when the Vega was built and I remember spending several days at the dealerships with mom and dad while they were trying to decide on whether to buy a Vega or a Luv. After several weeks of going back and forth with everything, dad drove home in the Vega. But I spent so much time looking at and sitting in the Luv truck that I fell in luv with it also, lol 😂.
      Both are absolutely beautiful examples of two vehicles that very few of have been preserved and it’s so nice to see a couple kept in pristine condition!!

    I don't know where to start. I want to keep the post short enough that you will read it but those rigs all have history with me. Like that red tornado that went way cheap. It was fast, not on take off but legs that just didn't quit. I took one that was stock and the speedometer only went to I think one ten in numbers and one more mark for the buck twenty so a cop friend put the radar on it for me and clocked it at one thirty one. That boat was afloat for sure and never ever felt out of control. The 52 got good money as there really is a limit to value or just how bad a person wants it and that fifty eight model truck was way cheap as I guessed in the twenties for sure. Other cars like the vaga.... I guess that guy had deep pockets. i remember hitting a frost hole in the spring one year and it was near new at the time. I was like ten miles from home and knew that it hurt the alignment but got home to find the right front loosing air as I parked It was near two inches out of alignment and my tie rod was so close to snapping off that it would scare you. I bought another one later that had a "Cosby" engine with overhead cams in seventy six... I think that is the year and it was factory with all heavy duty everything but the four speed was the M21 and those were not the best trany. Five bolt lugs as well. Easy to tell engines as the chains that ran the cams on either head was on the outside with plastic shields. I should at all costs kept it. Sadly all my pictures burned in a house fire about damn... back in eighty four or five..been a while. I hope that C70 goes to a good home someday..... I could keep going but your eyes are past tired now so thanks for sharing my old memories to life again

    What a amazing collection of everything! The sign collection would be cool to see in person.
    The 81 Chevy LUV I have never seen a 81 before. Looks like. Price not bad I thought. Chevette grill! I would have snapped up the Vega. Love the colour of the 52 Chev deluxe. $16k. What would it cost to take a basket case and restore? The toronados, reasonable if you keep them. The Delray another keeper. 12k, again, if you wanted this model, it is original only once. 58 Chev for $41k, that’s getting up there. Very nice though.

    a little history, you said that 58 was the only delray chevy, wrong, they made them in 55, 56, 57, 58 5, 6,, and 7 were above the 210 and below the bealair, 58 the delray was under the 150 or bottom of the line

    • @ernielaw
      @ernielaw Рік тому

      The Delray replaced the 150 in 1958 to become base model. It was also last year for the Delray. I believe that Delray had existed as a sub series in the BelAir line in 1956 and 57.
