Al Webster's Auction Tomorrow - Oct 17th

Anyone planning on attending. I have loads of  things to do so I'm sitting on the fence.

Reason I ask is because I need a correspondent to take photos and give me a short story for the Astro News Flash.

Any volunteers?

I'd like to go but I already have the GTO club swap meet and my F body club's season ending awards dinner tomorrow plus a bunch of other running around to do as well - why do all the car stuff things have to happen on one day?

Do we have any members up Bradford way that wouldn't be too far away to pop over for a few minutes?

Stopped in for a short time.
Cars were awesome. Didn't stick around for the bidding.
Can post some pics separately.
Not a lot of Poncho stuff but definitely the queen of the ball was that 58 parisienne rag.

Ray, can I email you photos a few at a time? I'm on dial up.
Would be interested in the final price list so that I'll know which cars went for what.

Thanks Ted, I am really interested in the two Pontiacs the 58 Parisienne and 46 Woody. I have about 50 shots of Al's 53 powder blue Cadillac, be interested in how much that went for.

I'll PM you my e-mail.

What an amazing car.

Thanks for that, Ray. Interesting reading.

I think that car hauler was a good deal for someone. I could use something like that!

Weyepopping.gifW on what some of the cars reached in this market also on what great deals were to be had too!!!

Without question my personal favourite deal would be the Mathis Boat-tail prototype..
How much closer to the man Billy Durant can a fella get for so little dough...and it's a running/driving car too!.
You knew Durant Motors Canada was in Leaside right Ray?.

Still on the fence w/ the '58 Poncho being an original W car..
It very well could be but and I love the car anyway but if it is why not say so?.

Yup on Durant, in fact my Cadillac Uncle had one too.

I am pretty sure Al told me a few years back that car was "built", so I don't think it is an original 348 tri-power, but I don't care, it's sweet.
