TULSA, Okla., Nov. 9, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Leake Auction Company will wrap up their 40^th anniversary celebration as their annual car show and auction rolls into Dallas Market Hall, November 16-18.  Admission is $15 for adults, $10 for senior citizens and military personnel with an ID and $7 for children under 12. Feature cars will include a 1959 Corvette Convertible, a number's matching 1970 Mustang Boss 429 and a 1914 Rolls-Royce Silver Ghost.

The Corvette is a NCRS Top Flight winner and features a 283 CI/290 HP V-8 engine. It is equipped with a manual 4-speed transmission and comes with a hard and soft top. The car has appeared in Corvette Fever magazine. All awards, documentation and magazine articles will go to the winning bidder. Of the 38 corvettes consigned to the auction, five have received the NCRS Top Flight Award.

One of only 500 made, the Mustang Boss 429 is a certified numbers matching vehicle. It features a hemi head 429 Cobra Jet Ram Air NASCAR engine, 4-speed manual transmission and magnum 500 wheels. Photo documentation is available proving it has the original engine and transmission.
