RM Amelia Island
RM's Amelia Island auction is this weekend and as usual RM has put together an outstanding consignment of 104 vehicles for this sale. The only category they seem to have missed is pre-1905 Brighton Run eligible cars; the 1909 Thomas Flyer is close, but VCC dating isn't horseshoes and close doesn't count.
Duesenberg? A LeBaron-bodied 1929 J Dual Cowl Phaeton (s/n 2149, engine J126).
Packard? A 1932 Twin Six Sport Phaeton with Individual Custom coachwork by Dietrich (s/n 900331, engine 900362, winner of the Gwen Graham award for Most Elegant Open Car at Pebble Beach).
Porsche? 917 Spyder (917.01.021), ex-John Paul Sr. & Jr. 935 IMSA Group 5 (JLP03) and ex-Joest 935/78 "Moby Dick" (935.81.J.R.001).
Shelby? King Cobra Cooper Monaco-Ford (CM/3/63), factory supercharged prototype '65 Mustang GT350 (SFM5010).
There are five Austin-Healeys, two BT7s and three BJ8s.
And so on. You get the idea.
The complete lot list as well as catalog descriptions and photos are on RM's website.
If you're down there and see me taking notes come up and introduce yourself so I can show off my tablet computer.
