Sure is a collection of "finds" there.

That 51 Patrician is quite something. Interesting to think that someone parked it one day and never touched it again for probably 50 years.

I might be going to NJ for Xmas and if I am I'll have to think if I could use anything off that 400. Spare cig lighters?


I wonder if anyone will pick up that Caribbean as a project. As long as it's not rusted into the ground it looks fairly viable, but you'd also pretty much need a whole senior parts car for it.

I'm surprised that 55 Patrician is still for sale. People are probably scared of the 91k miles and that it needs some paint, but all the brightwork is in great shape and that color scheme looks SO nice.
The bronze/white interior and exteriors are probably my favorite of all. Next is probably green/white, then pink/white. Nice thing about having a pink car though is NOTHING looks like it at a car show, and you can't beat it in terms of visibility on the road. The downside of brownish colors is you blend in with all the 80's camper vans.
