Quote from: Coralsnake on July 24, 2025, 05:50:12 PMEvery car is in the Registry and has some information, its not going to tell you the current status of every car. That changes too frequently.

I think its probably a safe bet to say 16-18 of those cars are still around in some form




Fair enough, thank you for the info!

It is a beautiful car! We cranked it yesterday and went over everything. She will be finding a new home in October. What is a safe number I can claim for how many of these are left?

My name is Mike McCandless. I'm one of the owners of Richmond Auctions. We're known for selling high grade advertising, but will have our first car auction Oct 24-25th in Bogart, GA with 100+ cars and 450+ pieces of advertising. The collection is all from Tony Townley, co-founder of Zaxby's Chicken. While a lot of these cars were purchased at auction, around 20% of his collection were private buys. Below is the list of Fords I think the group would find relevant. Our top priority is ensuring accuracy when presenting a car. The 65 car was sold at Barrett and there is plenty of information that, the other cars, were private purchases. I'd love any feedback from the group on any known history. I'm also happy to answer any questions I can as we prepare the catalog. Cars have been photographed at this point and we're in the middle of descriptions. The full catalog will be up in a month on our website.

If I'm posting something in error or in the wrong please, let me know. I simply want experts to check over what we do to ensure we're giving the right information. I know that's a foreign concept in most auctions, but we're not like most.
