1960 Briggs Cunningham Corvette for Sale at Sotheby's Auction

Sotheby's Auctions has just released a pretty crazy line-up of historically significant motorsport vehicles. However, the one that takes the cake is the 1960 Corvette that part of the Briggs Cunningham team.

The car drove at Le Mans as Briggs Cunningham tried to win the most difficult race in the world in an American made car. This was the car that was actually used at Le Mans which is why the price will probably be so high.

The car has Chassis number 3535 and has the information to prove it. However, it should be noted that the car is in poor condition. The car was under private ownership for a while until it was believed to be lost.

However, the car was found in 2012. It was then that specialists came to inspect the car and to confirm its historical significance. It is unclear how much the car will sell for but it is assumed that it will be quite a bit of money.

There are some other cars that are worth noting that will be joining the 1960 Corvette in the auction. The first is 1965 Shelby 289 Cobra that was used by Carroll Shelby as a demonstrator car. The car is in good condition and has a tuned V8 engine that is in running condition.

Also, there are a few cars from John Campion's collection. The most notable is the 1981 March 811 Formula 1 car that was actually raced. It is a formula 1 car that shows off the older style of formula 1 cars. It is in great condition and will most likely sell for quite a bit of money.

Thank you! - In and around 2000, the Eagles played a number of concerts in Las Vegas and Los Angeles. These concerts were recorded and put together as the Millennium Concert Collection.

The Millennium Concert is being offered as a single vinyl album that consists of 12 tracks, which are shown below. The album features a number of live versions of fan favorites such as 'Hotel California' and 'Peaceful Easy Feeling'. This album is quite special for a few reasons though the main one being that this was the last time that the Eagles played all together as a united group. This recording features Don Henley, Glenn Frey, Joe Walsh, Timothy B. Schm...

Eagles by The Eagles: Album Review

Author's Note: This is a note that was written after this post was written: I apologize that this article is kind of all over the place. I am still learning how to write about music and bands. Thank you for reading and all feedback is accepted! Just let me know what you think in the comments! The Band: As far as classic rock albums go, this one is by far the most popular! Eagles is an album by the band The Eagles, which is a little egotistical, and is one of the best rock albums, and best albums, of all time. The Eagles were a rock band in the 1970s and a wildly popular one at that. This album was arguably their best album and defined a whole genre of rock and roll for the next 20 years after its release. In this review I will talk about the band, the album, and then go over some of the music on the album! So, without further ado, let's talk about The Eagles! The Eagles are a true American rock band. They were formed in Los Angeles in 1971, just a year before the release of the...

Introduction: As a vintage cinema lover myself, I though that I would compile a list of the best movies for old movie lovers to watch! Some of these are personal favorites but I tried my best to stay unbiased and to simply put the best movies. I have seen all of these movies and, no matter which ones you choose to watch, they are all fantastic. I also would like to say that these are in no particular order and instead they are just in a simple list format. So, let's talk about what the best movies to watch are if you are a vintage cinema lover! #1: One Flew Over the Cuckoos Nest One Flew Over the Cuckoos Nest tells the story of a criminal who is sent to an asylum to be psychiatrically evaluated to determine whether he is criminally insane, or whether he should be sent back to jail. The movie starts as Randle McMurphy, the main character, is brought into the insane asylum and meets the doctors and nurses. It becomes quickly apparent that Randle is not actually insane and fr...
