An auction sale consisting of around 500 lots of classic cars, petroliana items, gas pumps and advertising memorabilia will be sold Saturday, May 1, beginning at 10 a.m. (Central Time), in the Central Motor Sales Building at 943 Alton Street in Wisconsin Rapids. The sale will be conducted by Matthews Auctions, LLC, of Nokomis, Ill.

Online bidding for the auction will be facilitated by Proxibid.com. Phone and absentee bids will also be accepted. Some of the approximately 20 classic cars will carry reserves, while all of the memorabilia will be sold absolute (everything goes, regardless of price). Also, some uncataloged items will be offered before the official start of the sale, in a Discovery Auction.

“What’s good about this auction is there will be such a diversity of offerings,” said Dan Matthews of Matthews Auctions, LLC. “It’s not every day you have classic cars, rare gas pumps, neon signs, car signs, gas globes and more, all in one sale — and all in one day!” Mr. Matthews encouraged bidders to view color photos in the online catalog at www.matthewsauctions.com.

The collector vehicles will include vintage cars and even a 1941 Harley Davidson motorcycle, partially restored. Classic cars will include a 1956 Mercury Montclair convertible, red with a white top, automatic, fully restored, with only 49,552 miles; and a 1957 Mercury Meteor Ranchero custom pick-up, automatic, fully restored, with two-tone paint and V-8 engine.
