Well. It's official. Silvia is live on Bring a Trailer. 

This car has been in our family since 2005. My Dad passed away last December 22 and I have slowly been working through his car collection keeping many and selling a few. One we are selling is the Ultra Rare 1965 Silvia. It was once featured in Classic Motorsports Magazine believe it or not! 

This has been a long process. But the sale of this car will allow us to finish and preserve the other cars and motorcycles in my dad's collection. It's bittersweet to see the car go up for sale. But the response it has gotten so far is truly incredible. The comment section is going nuts with high praise for the incredibly rare car. My Dad would be so proud of that.

Beautiful car. There is 1 ex patrol car that somehow survived. It's currently in Indiana painted red. It would be in my garage (and painted as it was) if I could fit in it. I'm too tall.

I'm suprised it didn't shoot up high. Six of them in the USA?

Hard to believe this didn't take off. Very fortunate it wasn't offered with no reserve.

I was extremely surprised that It didn't take off. So was everyone else! 

The reserve was not close to being met. 

Luckily we were able to come to a great sales agreement with The Mike Malamut Museum in California. The My dad would be thrilled to know his car will be taken care of at this level and shared with others to see for a very long time.
