I was watching the Jackson Barrett auction last night, and "The worlds greatest hot rod" sold for $400,000.00!

It is a beautiful car, but that is crazy!

I read about it in Street Rodder.

1940(?) Linchold Zeffer painted "six figure champagne", with a Flathead V12, chromed out. Beautiful. Amazing body modifications.

gotta love the classic Lincolns, and Caddies.

the Flathead was a crappy motor design though, not quite sure why they used it and why the trend of Rodders modding them is...(reckon it's moreso to have a period correct motor in them I guess...)
