Somebody had a Golden Eagle that ran out of engine time and wasn't worth repowering.
This one is rare, but might be too easy.

Ahha!...That is an Alfa Romeo Giulia Tubolare Zagato, or "TZ," a racecar from the mid 60s built with a thin tube (tubolare) chassis and a lightweight aluminum body by Zagato. 1600 alum twincam, twin plug engine tipped over to one side to clear the carbs under that hood. Maybe 1500 lbs, maybe 160hp max versions. Kammback aero design, magnesium wheels. I've heard one on a track, with that side megaphone exhaust they are LOUD.

They were street legal - drive to the track, drive home.

They raced all over the world, including Sebring.

This guy is a 1949 Buick Roadmaster woody wagon. A luxurious land yot in it's day. Straight 8, automatic. Dark blue with red leather. The woodwork and chrome hardware is amazing. I saw this car listed at $82,000....
