For Sale: 1971 Custom Soul Train in Volo, Illinois

To Be Auctioned Off No-Reserve Beginning on Sept. 19th. Estimate $20,000 - $25,000.

This incredible piece of car art was built by Hall of Fame car designed and builder Jay Ohrberg. Named "Soul Train" it pays tribute to Michael Jackson and the TV show he frequently appeared on "Soul Train". What started off as a vision, made its way to paper and eventually became a reality. It is constructed completely out of metal. This is not fiberglass! It has 4-wheel front steering and dual rear axles. It was originally designed to be able to run and drive but because Jay was under a deadline to have the car ready for the show circuit, he never finished the mechanics. The car had toured all over the world, it has visited more countries than most people have. When we acquired the car from Jay it was looking tired from traveling so much. Under Jays supervision, the car was given a show quality paint job with lots of custom air brushing making it as nice, if not nicer, than when it was first built. The car has been on display in our museum for over 10 years. Being a static display, we never attempted to finish the mechanics and it is being sold as an in-operational vehicle on a bill of sale only.
Jay Ohrberg has built some of the worlds most famous and unusual custom cars including many from TV and Movies. They have been displayed in museums all over the world, published in magazines and have even been in the Guinness Book of World Records. Jay was a ghost-builder building cars for people like George Barris. If you are not familiar with his name, you are familiar with his work!
