Sitting at the end of my driveway waiting for the FedEx truck to arrive.

Here is a short video of the Italien being loaded onto FedEx Passport Transport
for it's trip to Scottsdale Arizona.

It's Saturday January 5th around 10AM that the transport
arrives at my home to pick up the Italien.

The driver will arrive in Scottsdale on Friday January 11th
on the same day I arrive and I'll be there to personally unload it from
the truck and bring it into the auction arena where it will be
on display until it crosses the block on Saturday afternoon January 19th
around 6PM.

I'll be with the car all week so please stop by and say hello!




Here is the video of the Italien on the auction block being sold


The Italien was sold to Don Williams who owns the Blackhawk Collection Museum
in Danville California as well as the Auto Collection at the Imperial Palace in Las Vegas.
The Italien spent the remainder of Jan '08 and Feb '08 at the Imperial Palace
and was then transported to the Blackhawk museum where she resides today.
Below are a couple pictures of the Italien at the Blackhawk
which I took while visiting her in August '08.
