Description:
HIDDEN from public view for over 50 years, in the early 60s, the Golden Sahara was one of America's most famous cars. Originally built from a car that was wrecked in an accident, the first Golden Sahara was built by George Barris. It was the Golden Sahara 2, however, that was brought to public attention and cemented the vehicle as revolutionary. Four different steering options including aircraft-inspired controls; in-built television and tape recorder/player; electronic doors; vibrating massage seat; a hydraulic trunk and light-up neothane tyres made this car truly ahead of its time. A 24 carat gold trim interior, a white mink carpet and a mini bar in the back seat also goes to show how this vehicle was created to be over the top. At the height of its fame, having toured all over the USA for over four years, owner Jim Street retired the car into his collection. After Jim passed away, current owner Robert Olson bought the derelict car for a reported over $350,000 - and entirely restored it to its former glory. Robert told FutureStudiosCars: \

He had a 1-on-1 break away and beat Austin goalkeeper Brad Stuver, who led the MLS with 58 saves, to finish it in the bottom right corner. Ferreira is now the youngest player to reach 50 goals in the MLS regular season.<br/><br/>According to Head Coach Nico Estévez, the most important takeaway from the match was how united the team was.<br/><br/>“The willingness to win the game, the suffering, the sacrifice, hanging out there in the difficult moments… being humble to defend when needed…” Estévez said. “I think it was a collective team win.”<br/><br/>FCD did give up a penalty, in the 82nd minute—Austin midfielder and captain Sebastian Driussi buried it left past Dallas goalkeeper Maarten Paes.<br/><br/>It’s FC Dallas’ second win of the week, after beating Memphis 901 FC 1-0 on Tuesday in Round 32 of the Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup.<br/><br/>Austin FC will head back down I-35 with a loss on its record, while FC Dallas and its three points will head south next Saturday, May 18, for another Copa Tejas leg and Texas Derby matchup with Houston Dynamo FC.<br/><br/>Kickoff is set for 7:30.")
