The Fort Lauderdale Digital Catalog Is Here - Auctions America

Dear Media Colleague, With the final countdown underway to Auctions America�s Fort Lauderdale event, April 1-3, we�re delighted to present the digital catalog, showcasing select lots for your perusal. The upcoming sale, which offers Auctions America�s trademark quality and diversity of product, will lift the gavel on more than 450 vehicles and select automobilia. From elegant American classics to an outstanding selection of European sports cars, Detroit muscle, hot rods and customs, the offering shines a spotlight on a broad variety of automotive styling and engineering from across the years. Among a long list of highlights are: � an interesting and historically significant 1948 Tucker 48; beginning life as the factory automatic transmission test chassis, it was later completed by several enthusiasts using sourced parts and patterns taken from the excellent original Tucker at the Gilmore Car Museum, resulting in a highly detailed and authentic restoration (Est. $950,000 � $1,250,000); � a globe-trotting 1981 BMW M1; offered from 35 years of single ownership, this highly-original example and has been sparingly driven, accruing just 13,500 original kilometers (Est. $500,000 - $600,000); � a beautifully restored 1957 Ford Thunderbird D-Code; formerly owned by Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee, Max Weinberg, drummer of Bruce Springsteen�s E Street Band, this AACA Senior winner is presented in Dusk Rose with a Colonial White removable �porthole� hardtop with white interior ($75,000 - $100,000); and � a limited-production 2006 Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren; showing less than 5,500 actual miles from new, this example is stunning in black with a red interior. With a top-speed listed at 209-mph, it is considered one of the world�s most usable supercars (Est. $275,000 - $325,000). In addition to its traditional automobile offering, Auctions America is proud to once again lend its auction services to support two organizations committed to supporting at-risk youth in South Florida. 100 percent of proceeds, including buyer�s premium, from the sale of a 1964 Ford Falcon Futura Restomod Convertible, will benefit the Boys & Girls Clubs of Broward County, while proceeds from the sale of a 2006 Metropolitan Luftwaffe Bf 109 E Messerschmitt Custom Motorcycle & a 2006 Metropolitan Royal Air Force Super Marine Spitfire Custom Motorcycle, will support the Boys & Girls Club of Indian River County
