Per the auto section of today's News & Observer (Raleigh-Durham, NC), the Leith auto family is auctioning between 12 and 20 vintage automobiles to benefit the children of the 9/11 victims. Among the vehicles is a black 2 door 1958 Desoto Sportsman with automatic transmission, power steering and power brakes "valued at $20,000." The car is pictured and looks great. The auction is this Saturday, Oct. 20, 10 a.m. to 12 noon. Preview from 7 a.m to 10 a.m. same day. There is no minimum bid. For more information, call 919-366-8000 or go to www.leithcharityauction.com. Unfortunately, I'm out of town this weekend or would be there. Keith Wasserman Raleigh, NC 1958 Savoy Sport Coupe |
