This post is part of DT’s 2019 Day After Epiphany celebration. Legend has it that a wise man named Melchior visited the baby Jesus from the Far East on the 13th day of Christmas and he brought with him a gift of gold to signify that Jesus was a king. I think that perhaps a gift of […]
This post is part of DT’s 2016 Epiphany celebration. The next wise man is named Gaspar, and also hails from the wilds of Germania, but is cleverly disguised as an American. My best theory is that Gaspar is trying to avoid being detected by one of Herod’s folks as he returns to his homeland via […]
This post is part of DT’s 2016 Epiphany celebration. The next wise man is named Melchior, and comes from the wilds of Germania, but made a stop at a custom shop along the way. Typically when someone says they’ve got a 5.0 in a W123 Mercedes-Benz, the easy assumption is a pushrod Ford V8…but not […]

Myrrhcury is the ancient Aramaic spelling of Mercury — our favorite obsolete Ford luxury brand (sorry Edsel!). Find this 1973 Mercury Capri Mk I currently bidding for $3,550 here on […]
After the gift of a goldsmobile from the first wise man, the second (Melchior) presents his gift to the newborn baby Jesus, it is the perfect combination of speed and class for the newborn king– a V8 powered Frankenbenz. Find this 1973 Mercedes-Benz 450SL with LS1 offered for $28,000 on craigslist, located in Daytona Beach, […]
The Three Magi followed the Diamond Star Motors in the sky for hours and finally arrive at the roadside service station, head to the shed out back to deliver their gifts to the newborn baby Jesus. First up was Balthasar who delivered this gift of a gold 1967 Oldsmobile Toronado currently bidding here on eBay […]
