| There will be a quite a number of people who are expected to show up to The Forrest Faulknor & Sons Auction Company this Thursday October 28th in South San Francisco. The reason being is that eight vehicles formerly belonging to MC Hammer will be auctioned off. The vehicles include a 1952 custom Chevrolet Coupe, 1967 Ford Thunderbird, 1964 Lincoln Continental Convertible, 1972 Mercedes Benz 350 SL, 1985 Mercedes Benz 500 SEC custom convertible, 1990 Mercedes 300 SEL sedan, 1991 Lincoln Limousine and a 1990 Ferrari Testa Roosa with 9000 miles. I recall the Ferrari, unfortunately the last time Hammer drove the car he overheated the engine which means it will have to be rebuilt. There have been a number of firm bids for the Testa Rossa. As this auction is set to take place MC Hammer has been doing quite well. He had a successful comeback this summer when he left 22 thousand people standing as he rocked the house during KMEL's Summer Jam concert. He can also be heard doing talk radio on KGO as well as commentating during the SF 49er pre-games. He's had a number of songs that he's dropped off to deejays here and there, but people are awaiting his album. Many of the cuts will be the from the unreleased album he completed while he was an artist on Death Row records. There are some slamming songs especially one he did with 2Pac and Big Kaddy Kane. With this auction set to take place the question that everyone always asks.. 'Is Hammer poor broke and destitute?' About as much as Donald Trump was when he filed for bankruptcy a few years back :). |
