Lots of interesting iron, and there is one Olds, a '69 442 Coupe.

Who ever wrote up the add doesn't know a thing about cars. A plymouth destoto?

I've seen many errors of this type in auction listings over the years. I understand that auctioneers can't know everything about everything, and these guys apparently primarily are real estate auctioneers and do not regularly auction old cars. But still...

That is not as bad as the 1948 Mercury/Desoto he list and then list the same car elsewhere as a 1948 Mercury sedan when it appears to be a convertible. There is also a 1903 Curvedash Olds listed as a carriage (no doubt probably a replica).

There is jail and the hangman for thiefs but I hate to see Govt or the King taking personal property, and selling it. Andy

Yes, but if the personal property was obtained using stolen money, is it really his property? Certainly if the government catches a bank robber and recovers the stolen cash, that's legitimate. That's what was stolen. If the bank robber buys a new TV with the stolen cash before the police catch him, that doesn't mean that the TV is the personal property of the bank robber and the police can't recover it, does it? I would think not. The TV is still ill-gotten gains.
