Unrestored Shelby Cobra 260 sells for $2.07 million | Hemmings Daily.
That is just a LOT of dough, I know it’s a Shelby and unrestored but that seems a bit high too me.
Let me know what you think, is it worth over 2 million dollars?

New Zealand man prints an Aston Martin DB4 – Autoweek.
The 3D printer has really taken off and become affordable for a lot of hobbyists. As model car builder, I enough building cars (and a few planes) but this guys make a 3D model of a DB4. Pretty cool.

As promised we are going to take closer look at the Golden Hawk Gran Turismo (GT).
I really like the Golden Hawk it has very cool lines.
I love the roof line and I live the molding on the pillar, just above the quarter panel.
I love the ‘muted’ fins…there but not huge…The tail lights are great looking as is the slope of the trunk lid.
Love the curve of the fender that are topped with Chrome,
The Gran Trisumo emblem it spectacular and I like the unique placement. Notice the Studebaker emblem on the mirror.
I love the way the fenders end in a single headlight. The grill…well….I wouldn’t have done. What I do like about the front end are the vents that end in signal lights.
I like indications of a hood scope and the taper for the hood. I especially like the way the top fender molding has a slight curve and tapers at the end, above the headlight. The vent on the front fender is very cool old school!!!
Last but not least….I would not have those wheels on it…I’d rather have steel wheels and poverty hub cabs.
Your thoughts?
Thanks for reading.

More on Tucker cars
It’s monsoon season in Tucson and hence we are in a drought as far as car shows go. So today was a great day – clear blue skies, with thunder storm beginning to pop up over the mountains (yes we have mountains in Az).
My son is a photographer and I’m a want too be. So wanting to de-stress for a day I choose to check in with him and see if he had time to drag the old man around for a photo shoot. He often takes a weekend day and tools around with his camera, which is fun and with no specific agenda, just what the doctor ordered.
I picked him up and we headed to a park, that normally has an abundance of water. Yes we have lakes in Arizona (although many are man-made or at least get a lot of help from managed care). This place normally is home to fish, turtles and various water fowl (YES we have ducks here too!!!).
As we approached the entrance a car turned out of the park and I didn’t immediately recognize and as we entered the park a see a 1920’s 4 door sedan, looking mostly original. I was still not sure the maker. As we entered the park and drove the round to the parking in back I spotted a rare hawk and it’s companion.
Yes that is a Golden Hawk GT… by Studebaker. (Right)
1937 Coup – split rear window.
Just our luck, during the Arizona car show drought season, we ran into the tail-end of a local Studebaker Club breakfast!!!! And just my luck – only two cars were left, out of the 30 that showed up earlier and I missed maybe one of the oldest Studebakers I may every see in person. A 1933 Sedan!!!
I got to speak to one of the members and inquired as to how many were in their club. He believed that there were 30-40 with a total of just under 1oo exampled of the Studebaker legacy. He himself owned these two car plus two more.
We’ll take a closer look at these two cars in the next couple posts.
Stay tuned!!

Riding Vintage: The Harley-Davidson Package Truck.
This is a great site. Harley’s are big in the bike collecting crowd, but I don’t think I’ve ever seen one of these at a show.
Very Cool!!!
