What an amazing collection of Neon signs and Ford motor vehicles Mr Dingman has collected. This picture is from a previous sale.
 
I guess summer flushes the chumps.

Gulp! 1936 Roadster sells for $140,000 including buyer premium. From the catalog "This car is one of several in the collection whose engine was consigned by Mr. Dingman to Roush Performance Products for rebuilding."

And this cutaway engine for $45,600 again "Inclusive of applicable buyer's fee."

The buyers fee on non automobiles was 20%. The fees on cars was 12% up to 250k and then 10%. These auctioneers are out of control.
 
I was watching some of the Lincoln items in the collection, and even looked into bidding but I'm just too cheap to spend $150 just to be outbid by someone else (and looking at the final sale price on the items I was looking at, I made the correct decision.)

I didnt read any of the auctioneers terms, is your $150 comment mean that its cost $150 to register to bid?

Yep, at least that's how I read it when I got partway through the registration. Really a negligible amount when you consider how much many of the items sold for, but money I could better spend elsewhere.
 
I went both day's, beautiful collection. Was worth going to just to look at everything. I met the guy who bought the 40" storage box full of old ford stuff. He lives close to me I'm going to go take a look as soon as he gets it to his property. The thing was packed. Might be some good stuff.

I guess thats how they keep the riff raff out which will keep me away.
 
I think that's a picture of a 1940 Ford or later cutaway engine. Look at the transmission attached to it....
