1955 Crown Victoria glass top, VIN# U5SF151113# which is an “M” coded car which means it has a 272 4-barrel high performance engine, power steering, power brakes, 4-way power seat, power windows, factory dual exhausts. The car was purchased in Massachusetts in 1962 for which the owner has a bill of sale. The car was stored in a barn in 1964 while the owner attended school in Europe. To make a long story short, one of the beams in the barn broke away and fell on the passenger side rear quarter window section breaking the quarter window and damaging the roof line which caused a long crack in the glass roof and minor roof damage. When the owner returned he had the car removed and put in a garage where it was taken apart. After thinking it over he decided that he was going to have it repaired but didn’t have the money so he knew it would be a long time before the car would be fixed. He removed all of the interior, head liner, power seats and rear seats, door panels, rear quarter panels. He also removed all the outside stainless steel. The grille was removed and was sent away for re-plating. The front and rear bumpers and bumper guards were sent away for re-plating also. A new glass top was also ordered at a hefty price. To this day the glass top is still wrapped in the factory wrapping. The bumpers and grille are also still wrapped. You can see them in the pictures of the open door of the trailer. If you look carefully on the left hand side you’ll find the bumpers and on the right hand side you will find the glass top wrapped in plastic wrapping. Underneath the glass you have the front windshield and the rear glass and a box of all new glass rubbers for all the new glass. Now after 4 or 5 years he thought he found a body shop that could do the job and that just didn’t work out. The car stayed in the shop for quite a few years. A few years later he found another place but that didn’t work out either. Then he called me. I knew of the right guy. Specializes in Crown Victorias and glass tops. He made arrangements to have it done and sent it to him. For some reason I don’t know they couldn’t agree on a price and money was even scarcer than it was before so it stayed there, outside, for many, many years. All the time that it was there the shop owner tried to keep the body covered and away from the weather. In reality you still have a 1955 Crown Victoria glass top, complete car that still hasn’t been repaired. All the good stuff, glass top, and chromed articles, seats and upholstery were stored away. The only thing that was left out was the body that was pretty well emptied years ago. Somewhere during that time there was some vandalism and someone had taken the power window lift units but left the glass and everything else. Can’t go on forever so if you want more information call me at: (207)873-5402 for the rest of the story. I will put all the pictures I have so you will have an idea of what I didn’t mention. The parts and the remaining vehicle are being sold AS IS, where is with no warranty, expressed, written or implied. It is the responsibility of the buyer to have asked all of the questions necessary or thoroughly inspected the vehicle and to have satisfied himself or herself of the condition. If you are not sure about something please ask. Once again if you have questions please email. I reserve the right to end this sale if the vehicle is no longer available for sale. |

Sunday Drive: Volvo hits a crossover home run, and people still love sports cars
Sun, Sep 24 2017Looking back at the week that just was clearly tells us at least three things. First, crossovers don't have to be boring. Second, people still love sports cars, from the attainable (Audi TT RS) to the fanciful (Mercedes-AMG GT C). And finally, the traditional German trio of premium luxury brands had better not rest on their laurels, because credible challengers are coming in from every direction. The biggest reveal of the week, at least judging by the interest of Autoblog readers, was the Volvo XC40. Not only is the little 'ute a looker, it introduces some innovative new buying/leasing schemes designed to appeal to an audience accustomed to trading in and trading up every couple of years. Think of Volvo's flat-fee lease as you would a smartphone contract, and you'll be on the right track. Genesis looks to have a hit on its hands in the form of the G70 sport sedan. We took a Korean-spec model for a spin and found a lot to like about the upstart contender. We can't wait to sample one here in the United States to see how it stacks up against the Audi A4, BMW 3 Series, and Mercedes-Benz C-Class. In other news, we're still really excited to see a production Ford Ranger Raptor. But if you just can't wait for the official reveal — it's OK, neither can we — take a look at the renderings in our post down below. As always, tune in to Autoblog next week for a front-row seat to all the happenings worth following in the automotive industry. Volvo XC40 revealed | Crossover at the crossroads of style and substance 3 ways the Volvo XC40 is a game-changer Genesis G70 First Drive | An arrow to the heart of the Germans 2018 Audi TT RS Drivers' Notes | Five pots of turbocharged honey 2018 Mercedes-AMG GT C Quick Spin | This is the AMG GT you want The Ford Ranger Raptor is real, and this is what it might look like

11 vehicles from Barrett-Jackson Las Vegas worth watching
Fri, 26 Sep 2014This weekend will see the world's collector car crowds descend on Las Vegas, NV for one of the biggest shows on Barrett-Jackson's popular auction circuit. There are hundreds of vehicles up for bidding, ranging from a brand-new Lamborghini Aventador to a spattering of Art Deco classics and a huge swath of classic muscle cars.
While it's virtually impossible to assemble an inarguable list of the best cars coming during the three-day, 700-plus vehicle auction, we've sifted through the listings for this year's show - it was a tough assignment, we promise - and assembled a list of what we think will be some of the most interesting lots. We'll admit, it's a bit heavy on American iron, but if you browse BJ's listings, you'll come to a similar conclusion. Still, scroll down for our list of what we think will be the most interesting vehicles at the upcoming auction.
