No, not the car of the former Joseph Cardinal Ratzinger that you heard so much about after the election of Pope Benedict XVI. Apparently, the only car Karol Cardinal Wojtyla, later Pope John Paul II, ever owned is in litigation because a father and son are fighting over who it rightfully belongs to:
“The powder blue, four-door 1975 Ford Escort is expected to go for as much as $5 million but Jerome Rich says his son Jim has no right to sell it.
“Jim Rich obtained the keys to the car from the pontiff himself a decade ago after purchasing it through an Indiana auction house for $102,000, said lawyer Wade Joyner, who represents Jerome Rich.
“Jim Rich put the car on display under glass at his suburban Chicago restaurant but the establishment closed a year ago. He has said he now wants to auction the car on June 5 at the Mandalay Bay resort in Las Vegas to pay off debts owed his father.”
Idea! Get a welder to split the car in half and then give it to the person who is willing to let the other have it.
So if the pope is canonized, then the car becomes a relic, right?
I actually drove a powder blue Escort for several years. The most boring car on the planet.
One tip: If you own one of these cars and have an appointment to have it serviced, do NOT write “Escort-service” in your planner. You may have some ‘splainin’ to do.
Haha! I’ll actually be in Las Vegas next weekend. If anyone wants me to bid for them let me know…
