Former JOURNEY Singer STEVE PERRY Is Auctioning Off His 'Favorite Car' For Charity
A 1979 Mercedes 450 SL, which is said to have been Perry's "favorite car", is being auctioned off via Capital City Auto Auction. According to the Capital City web site, Steve would drive the vehicle "to and from all the JOURNEY writing, recording, and rehearsal sessions back in the day. Many songs were written by Steve while driving this car. Steve called it 'Windshield Song Writing.'"
Included in this package:
* 1979 Mercedes 450 SL convertible
* Custom Made Tuxedo Tails Jacket worn by Steve Perry during many past concert performances
