I'm buying the roofless beetle!

 

Nice choice...I like the one with the lace doillies painted onto the side - hehe

As of 10:15a May 19th, my car is winning - I know, unbelievable!! - its up to a grand...I think Im going to start biding tomorrow on Leigh's just to pick up the slack, hehe

 

Are these cars in a Fourstar storage barn?

 

I believe they are all still down the street from where we built them in some storage warehouse....but its in Hamilton I believe

 

I'm not sure if i've missed a thread about these, but they look like an absolute steal.

Is there any additional information availible about these? Photos etc? Do we have an idea on the reserve?

Paul

 

well Im not sure about the reserve, but the two cars started life as beautiful GSL-Se's that the production company paid approx. 5,000 a piece for. And for the episode about $10,000 value (retail) in parts went into them. And I can tell you the yellow one has a blown oil cooler line

I imagine the reserve will be approx. what they paid for the cars, as they'd have to be half in the bag to expect to get what they put in.

I have some pics of the cars and Leigh probably does as well....they are supposed to kept under wraps - however all the cars are on auction now and the first episode has yet to even air so really I think the secrecy was thrown out the window.

 

hey biatch, how do you expect me to buy that car cheap if you keep telling people about it??? I need another 1st gen, and you're ruining my chances!!! WHY I otta!!!

no one else bid on "my car". it's already looking forward to coming to my garage.
heck, I cleaned it for long enough!!!

see ya'll tomorrow.

 

If anyone local buys the yellow one, they should see me about the wiring. Some of it was done under the limitations of time, budget and the rules of the show so I had to make some sacrifices. If the car is to be driven regularly (on the track) then there are areas of the harness that need to be improved. Specifically the injector resistors, wires to the CAS and the lines to the starter and clutch switch.

 

You already severly whipped me on the track, isn't that enough? hehe

edit: and yes Leigh, your solvent/toothbrush induced euphoria should give you unlimited entitlement.....but DAYUM, I want that fire extingusher!! hehe

 

Wow, I see the yellow one is eqipped with the engine out of an elusive "1987 RX2 ".

Nice cars, but what kind of monkey did they hire to do the pics and descriptions?

Jon

 

One who would keep the car's value as low as possible for Leigh and I -

 

Hey Joe, should I buy the yellow one and plan a future 'reversion'?

 

so who did the red or orange colour one.....best luck bidding guys

 

I wouldn't bid on the orange one, it sucks ***. everyone bid on the fancy yellow one.

 

I heard the orange one kicks ***

 

by who? what's so special about it?

 

heard that on the grape vine

 

Leigh are you ebay user $babythug$? Well the reserve was not met on either so maybe the highbidders will get a second chance offer.

 

no, I wanted to be, but can't afford more than a few $K right now. I didn't even bid once it went over my $2K limit.
if Joe had kept his big trap shut I might have been able to get it for a good price!! thanks joe

the truth is, the car I want to build will be much faster, and more unique than that 1st gen.... so I'll wait.
no room to store it right now anyway.

 

The bidding is about to end on these...

 

Dom did you come back to the future?
i think these ended in may
