Boss Mustang Star of Shannons Autumn Auction
A stunning Grabber Blue 1970 Boss Mustang 302 Fastback with all matching numbers is one of the highlights of Shannons Sydney autumn auction on Monday May 7. One of just 737 built with the W-code Drag Pack option, the car has been the subject of a fully documented restoration by its former Californian owner less than two years ago. It is now in immaculate condition both inside and out, having covered only around 400 miles since. In muscle car terms, the Boss models built in 1969-1970 have grown in stature to become some of the most desirable Mustangs of all. The Boss 429 was essentially a big-block dragster while Ford used the Boss 302 to homologate the Mustang for the SCCA's Trans-Am road racing series, where engine capacity was restricted to 5.0 litres.
Athletes go up for sale
A lap dance from water polo player Sean Williams is worth exactly $16 -- or at least it was last night in a fundraiser at HUB Heritage Hall. Attendees of the Penn State Marketing Association (PSMA) Date Auction watched as lacrosse player Megan McGuire "bought" Williams. Bidders on the water polo player were not only paying for a date with him, but for a lap dance Williams promised, which McGuire received on stage immediately after the bidding on Williams closed. "It was hot," McGuire said, laughing. "I didn't really expect him to do it up there, but hey, whatever." PSMA held the event as a way to raise money for Alex's Lemonade Stand, an organization that deals with pediatric cancer. "We came up with the idea because we were looking for a way to raise money, just in general, whether for an organization or for a charity," Jessica Hoffman, a member of PSMA and co-chair of the event, said.
