A little perspective from 19Fordy's linked article...

“Leo Gephart, my father Russ Jackson and Tom Barrett worked together to develop the blueprint for the collector car auction as we know it today,” said Craig Jackson, chairman and chief executive of the company that carries his family’s name. “I grew up with Leo. He was an innovator and a visionary whose legacy will remain for years to come. He will be missed.” [Bold added by me.]

I also want to point out that Mr. Floyd, who donated the polished car, has given us a fabulous toy store in the form of a whole museum wing full of pretty much every flavor of '36 Ford you can round up.
