The American Classics Collection
Our partners at the Piston Foundation have partnered with Veloce Valuations and Bring a Trailer to present the Miniature d’Elegance, a unique group of eighty-one 1:24 scale diecast models collected over ten years from the Franklin Mint and the Danbury Mint.
The Miniature d’Elegance will be offered in two distinct collections, American Classics and Grand Elegance. The winning bid for each of these no-reserve auctions, including the BaT buyer’s fee, will be donated to the Piston Foundation, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit that will use 100% of the funds to help young car enthusiasts become skilled technicians through its scholarship and apprenticeship programs.
The American Classics collection boasts a strong grouping with a 1392 Cadillac V16, a 1975 Chevrolet Bel-Air, 1975 Studebaker Golden Hawk and 10 Fords in various models. The collection includes U.S. Mail trucks, Budweiser, and Coca Cola delivery trucks from the 1920’s and 1930’s, as well as a selection of U.S. gas station pumps.
