With my 2nd daughter going to be here in a couple months and my first daughter with a broken arm needing surgery this week I am offering at the lowest price ever.

To keep with forum rules I will sell now for 28,500.00 but the reseve in the auction is much lower. If it hits the reserve I'm going to let it ride out.

On sat the last hour of the auction or more likely the last 30 seconds as they all look to snipe each other either sitting at their screen or via software.

They all wait to see what the other guy is going to do. As a seller it would drive me nuts waiting for some action to start.

You have a really nice car and I know how much time and effort you put into it. All the details really add up and make a difference.
When the right person sees it they will also see all of that and appreciate what you have done. It will sell. And if it matters I bet it goes to a good new home too.:cheers:

PS How is your wife and daughter doing? (the pregnancy and broken arm)

Hey Eric--the reason for that is what happens frequently on Ebay is if a live buyer gets anxious there are some sellers who will push him with phony bids--So u learn to give a MAX bid at the end so there is no phony pushing by the seller-He doesn't have time nor does he want to go around the legit guy!!

Richard , I am going to bid at the end--the paint issue is holding most back in my mind--but I agree with the rest--It has a LOTTTT of extra time and work--I would be very proud--Sorry about the daughter!!

If it doesn't bust reserve , I will call u next week jim

(by the way would it kill u if i painted it BLACK!!!!) :wow:

The wife and daughter are doing well. She got her cast yesterday and now its like nothing ever happened. The cast is not slowing her down even a little. Now if only the damn doctor and hospital bills would slow down LOL. They are kicking my ass even after insurance.

(by the way would it kill u if i painted it BLACK!!!!) :wow:

Only if you changed the interior to red. You would truly be finishing it the way it is in my dreams. I might have to hit a bridge pillar then. :D

WOW that sucked. When I listed just after Thanksgiving last year it went to $22,500.00 which was not too far from my reserve this week. I may list again after tax season is over but in the mean time $26,000.00 is the firm price I will take.

I agree whole completely and the receipts I have is a folder will back it up. In fact I have some other stuff for sale if they sell first the price goes up on this or it goes back inside the shop and apart to paint it.
