Yeah, I saw that. What's up with this guy???? He gets a high offer of $70k and moves his BIN up $80k. I guess he's just hoping that some lottery winner finally happens to see his ad if he keeps it up there long enough.........

[Brewster]

He has it listed back up in the 200k range again!

[Lloyd-TX]

Goofy, just plain goofy!

Anybody want to bet that it's getting ready to go to an auction?

[Brewster]

I saw a 1968 GTO getting ready for stage on Speed channel but never saw what it did, and body know?

Lloyd, you probably hit it right on the head!

Here is an ad from the internet for a 74 SD 4sp car. I saw it about 2-3 years ago... Think it is the same one on e-bay now?

Its the same car and its to bad he didnt sell the chevy instead due to market. Whats the date of the ad ?
That windsheild washer was obviously on add on option by the new owner.

[Lloyd-TX]

Oooooh!

American Racing Salt Flats, wrong car to put them on that is for sure............ Maybe if he painted the centers red he might get his asking price?

[Shift'n Gears]

Brew,
I can't remember for sure and there is no date on the link I used. I am sure that it was around 2005, right before prices exploded.
Looks like the wheels were off a used Triumph...

[rwinkles]

Holy crap!! The auction ended with the Buy It Now option at $225k!!! Could this be real???

[michael j]

I have been reading some of the threads here on SD's,and looking them up on e-bay also. Last night I went to check and the one you are talking about disappeard with about 3 days left and the price was 225000 buy now at the same time another red one was listed and the bid was up to about 40000 and it left. What happened some one get found out about something. From what I read you guys are pretty sharp on whats what on the SD's I only caught a few mistakes. I did like the window washer. LOL Mike

NO.....

[Brewster]

Craig, you know something spit it out!

[Norwood]

No facts, but my bet is that it will be relisted within a month.....

[Shift'n Gears]

Dick,
There is an easy way to see if it is real.... Put yours up with a BIN of $225 and see if ther is another sucker, er.. I mean Buyer. LOL

[Jim Schornack]

I doubt that it sold for $225 that but its hard to say with EBAY. He might of come to a conclusion that his $80 was enough and took the previous bid for $80. You never know what happens. I am shocked at the connections that I have made with my Ebay ad in only one week. This guy has run this ad many times. It only takes one person. You can ask anything you want. Even though he has taken a pounding here he might of pulled off a deal with someone that is a collector and is lookin to buy a car instead of dumpin thier money into a tanking stock market.

[rwinkles]

Word on the street is that he did not sell the car. Supposedly, he says he would now take $140 - $150k for the car (wouldn't we all?). He will probably have it up for auction again sometime soon.

[michael j]

That $145,000 price was buy now around the last of Dec. The first price I seen on e-bay was for $950,000, blew my eye sockets out. All told there was 9 cars sold off of his e-bay sites and it was started out with 0 sold. Nice collection of cars for the wallet. Probably was better than the stock market.

[Father&Son73T/A]

I'd say it's better than a 401k,if I am right and I think he picked that car up about 4 yrs ago for 50k
I remember the fugly spoked wheels that looked like they were on a Triumph.

[Shift'n Gears]

This answers the question "Did it sell on Ebay..."?

Hey at least now he is willing to "Negotiate" LOL.
