Default Murphy Auction March 16. A '71 TA and some nice GTO's

Has anyone ever heard of or been to a Murphy Auction? If the cars don't get run over by some heavy equipment there could be some bargains to be had in this no reserve auction.

A '71 TA, '71 400 GTO and '72 455HO GTO.

I went and looked at the cars last week. T/A is the nicest, then the 72 GTO, and the 64 GTO. All the other cars are driver quality needing resto or a lot of detailing. Wonder what they will go for?

Drag racing. An adrenalin rush like no other. It felt like going into combat, tasting your first beer, and losing you virginity, all in about 8 seconds.

that 71 T/A DOES have some very interesting features to it now that the hood's been opened up. seems like something I may have seen several times before. i'm willing to go out on a limb and bet the house that this one is the same car as this one here......it looks to be a former magazine and book feature car?????.....
