Welcome to another edition of the Hooniverse Weekend. Since Spring is just around the corner, I thought I would start with one of the most iconic places within the car collecting world, Carlisle Pennsylvania. Next month, Auctions America will hold their Spring Carlisle Auction Event, and to celebrate spring, let’s take a quick look at what they have to offer.


A 1963 1/2 Ford Galaxie with a real R-code 425 hp 427 with dual 4-barrel carburetors and a 4-speed. This was a barn find from Georgia.

Here is a Genuine BMW M6 that is all-original, is one of 1,767 imported to North America and shows 84,000 actual miles. It includes all factory options, has never been modified, and includes service receipts, and an original sales brochure.

Here is a 1974 Bricklin SV1, and is one of the last 4-Speed cars built, with an AMC 360 cu. in. V-8. This car has received a complete restoration.

This is a first-year C3 Corvette Convertible from 1968. The listing says it will be offered complete with the Protect-O-Plate and the original bill of sale from when it was sold new.

The full-sized Muscle Car was on the way out, but you can have one of the last with this 1969 Chevrolet Impala SS 427.

This 1963 Chrysler Imperial Crown Convertible is rather rare with only 531 built. It is also the last year with the peculiar Virgil Exner styling.

This is an early 1957 Chrysler Windsor. You can tell because it sports a single headlamp in each pod. Yet the car shows only 49,000 miles. A great example of a base Chrysler from the Forward Look era.

Here is a 1976 Ford F-100 Pickup with only 1,200 miles on the clock. It has a 302 V-8 and an Automatic, and is as close to a brand new 1976 truck as anything you might find anywhere.

This is a 1988 Ford Mustang 5.0 LX Convertible with only 17,000 miles on the clock. It is equipped with the 5-speed stick, and virtually every option offered on the Mustang when it was built.

This is a 1990 Thunderbird S/C Coupe, showing 45,000 miles. It is equipped with the 5-speed transmission, and has been in a Ford Dealers collection since new.

Here is a 1967 Mercury Cougar, that has only 44,500 miles on the odometer. It isan unusual Cougar because it comes with a 289 CID V-8, and a Three Speed Transmission.

Here is a 1978 MG Midget. Not much else can be said about it except for the painted rubber bumpers.

How about a 1973 Pontiac Grand Ville Convertible, finished in a one year only paint color. Only 65,000 miles on this land barge, powered by a 455 CID V-8.
