Default Upcoming auction

As a kid growing up in Springfield, Illinois I hung out at the local hardware/auto parts store. I remember buying a set of baby moons and when they got stolen a set of spinner hub caps for my first car, a 54 Chevy and later a pair of glass packs for my brand new 65 Impala.
The store's name was Davis and Turley and was located at 6th and Stanford 4 blocks from my house.
The rumor was that the upper floor of Davis and Turley was full of old cars, but know one really believed it. For once the rumors were all true. Not only cars but a vintage Harley, old toys, advertising, auto parts etc.
Check out the following site; http://www.biddersandbuyers.com/ads/101803gaule.htm

Wish I could be there but I can't make it, I hope some of you on the board can. If you go let me know how it was.

I may go just to take this all in.
Do you know if there are any Muscle cars in there?

Someone may want to check that old trunk for Helen Brach or possibly some of the money that former Illinois governor Otto Kerner embezzled that was never found.
