There's a little auction coming up in my hometown.
https://www.bonhams.com/auctions/25593/
Frank Spain, a true pioneer in the early days of TV, amassed the collection and his widow closed the museum last month. Proceeds will benefit education.

The Tucker is the star of the show, followed by the Duesenberg and the Hispano-Suiza. I truly hope the auction is a monumental success. If I'm in town, I'll be there.

Very cool! I wouldn't bid over 1.3M

Re: For You Car Guys
Dave...there's some speculation the Tucker might get close to 3M. 2+ is probably more realistic. Some of you know Wayne Carini, who is involved on behalf of the seller. And yes, it's really cool. This is a pretty big deal.

Re: For You Car Guys
I’d love to have a few of those signs. The cars are a bit above my budget.

Preston Tucker's great-grandsons are in town. Pretty neat.
