An interesting item on the auction list

As you may know, I enjoy going to the auctions run by the James G. Murphy company. They do interesting industrial auctions and they always put on a good show -- even if you don't buy anything, the people watching is a lot of fun as people try to second-guess what the other person is thinking. They also do a monthly auction at their site -- mostly vehicles, contractor machinery, forklifts, trucks, etc... They also do the remainders from past auctions and they have the occasional interesting outlier. Their next auction is this coming Saturday and this sweet ride caught my eye:

1953 SARACEN FV603 6x6 armored personnel vehicle, ROLLS ROYCE B80 Mk6A 8 cyl
What a great rig for tooling around town -- no problems with road rage there... Posted by DaveH at April 30, 2009 11:46 AM
