The collection belonged to local enthusiast Danny Davis, who passed away, leaving behind a treasure trove of cherished vehicles now managed by his brother, Phil Davis. The 1947 Mercury stands out due to its exceptional condition and personal significance, as Phil reminisces, “The reason Danny bought that car was that type of car, exact colour and everything is the very first car I remember our dad having when we were kids.”
In addition to the Mercury, the auction features a variety of other classic vehicles, including a 1965 Ford F100 and a 1967 Falcon sport coupe, as well as several 1951 twin spinner Fords. Phil Davis highlights the diversity of the collection, stating, “There’s two utes and a four-door sedan and a two-door coupe on auction as well.”
This auction is not just about the cars; it also includes spare parts and workshop equipment to keep these classic beauties in top shape. A pre-auction inspection is scheduled for August 29, 2025, from noon to 2 PM, allowing potential bidders to view the cars firsthand.
