Default Re: Guess my cars contest

Mitchel, do you remember off the top of your head how much you paid for each car? My dad had many cars and it amazes me how he talks now and then about them as he remembers what he paid for his old cars, what he sold them for, modifications he made, etc. He was the second owner of the roadster that won the very first Oakland Roadster Show and declared "America's Most Beautiful Roadster". The third owner let it fall apart but a local guy bought it several years ago and restored it for a 50th anniversary celebration of the show. I still can't believe dad ever got rid of it. He has great memories of talking it to shows around the state on the back end of a flatbed farm truck. He remembers having to drive around Fresno to find a loading dock to drive it off. Things are a lot different today!!!
