-1973 BMW 3.0 CS in Fjord Blue. This was one of those cars that look fantastic from 20 feet away but when you get closer you notice the rust blisters forming on lower fenders and below side windows, the upholstery patched with tape and a few dodgy spots of thinning paint. Not great but cheap, sale price $11,500. -198? BMW M6, seen on the same lot as the 3.0, faded but decent (dark blue) paint and messy interior, no price posted. -1968 MGB-GT, one of the nicest I have seen Good BRG paint spoiled by a run on forward part of hood (easy enough to fix), very good chrome and interior. Small tailights indicate pre-'69 car IIRC. Side Markers indicate '68 MY. Same lot as Bimmers. -1955-57 Porsche Speedster, Ivory, tan top. When you see one you have to assume it's a replica but it didn't have the chrome rims that most replicas have (they were a rare option on originals) but had disc wheels painted to match bodywork with moon style hubcaps like a Beetle. Glimpsed on highway going in opposite direction. Pretty good sightings for one 30 mile round trip!
