It's called ustream

It's sitting with the air out of it, it lifts up to ride height and the wheels straighten out.

That's a gorgeous looking car. I'm digging it.:yes: :thumbsup:
Good luck with the sale.:cheers:

I love it! I have my eye on a Cuda that will be at the Leake Auction in Tulsa this June. I don't have the link but if any of you get a chance to check it out tell me what you think. It's towards the bottom of the consign list for Tulsa...www.Leakecarauction.com I think, just google and it will pop up.

Thanks guys I hope it does well, I'm not going to give it away so it better bring some good money! We got down here late, traffic sucked and the car was dirty as hell. It's the last black car I will ever own I cant believe how much of a pain in the ass it is to keep clean and look good. It runs sat @ 9:30 eastern time so tune in I think I just missed tv time but I'm sure it will be on the web!

When does Malitude go off?

listing states Sat at 4 pm

Took me a while to find the Mecum auction on Comcast so thought I would post up a LINK to HD THEATER (A Discovery channel) FINDER ---

You can put in your zip code - and TV provider - it will give you the CHANNEL for this auction/channel...

Did it go yet ?

S152 went I think

I'm lost S152 was a Nova from what my buddy told me.

S152.1

Sold, $110k .

Looks like Charlie wanted that Trans Am

yeah, until he found out how bad it was before being restored............... :faint:
Malitude went for $110K, the buyer held his Lear Jet to hang around for it to hit the podium. He would have gone a lot higher, but there wasn't a second guy to go with him. Great auction, lots of fun and a ton of nice muscle cars. And congrats to Charley on the sale, glad to see the car do well, it was very well received.

Jody

That's why I don't use NetJets...
:cheers: :woot:

Very cool.

Congrats Charlie,well done...beautiful work Jody.:yes:

Congrats guys! :cheers:

Well I learned the hard way that you should never let your car run after 8:00 that place was fn empty! My car was bid up to 53k looks like I'll have something to drive this summer after all theres no way I'm taking less than 65K for it.

Sorry to hear that- good luck with the future sale- Chris

Yeah, been there, done that. Just me and my car in the building after 8PM. never again. i would rather run at noon. But for me, no prime time, no go!

Sorry it did not go.

can you choose your time or is it dictated by the popularity of the car??

Thats strange Telly, you have a nice car....I heard a 70 challenger hemi conv sold for $675k I'd poop myself.

Congrates Jody and Charlie.

At Mecum, it's basically first come first serve. So those who consigned early got the good spots. That's why you can see a $300k car followed by a $30k car.

Congrats, Charley.

Very cool!!:thumbsup:

sad to see it leave northen california

I'm pretty dissapointed and know that I will never run another car unless it runs between 3-7 pm, my 1k that I spent for the spot 200 for hotel room and 300 for gas just seems like a big waste of time and money right now, I could have drove 30 minutes to W.I. Dells car show this weekend and had a hell of a lot better chance of selling it. I knew after my father in laws car ran very late on friday night that mine would probably not sell and when I pulled it on the block and seen about 200 people in the building and around 7 there were a couple thousand I really knew I was probably taking it home. So on the 6 hr drive home today I realized that I really dont need the money so if I cant get really close to 75k I'll leave it in the corner till the market turns around or sell my other projects and make some changes so I can make it more trackable. After seeing 10,000 camaro's this weekend I'm getting kind of sick of them this things paid for and different so why not keep it? I just need to figure out how to pay for my upgades to my ta for my trip to Sema!

We actually don't know what kind of jet he had or ow high he would have bid but knowing he had a jet waiting was a good sign. The other guy stopped bidding when he was told by someone that he wasn't going to outbid the other guy. The winning bidder seems like a nice guy. The Ram Air 4 70 Trans Am was dirt cheap even if it did start out as a basket case. Those have been selling at 200k-250K. I just had a bad feeling about the car when reserve was lifted at 50K. You don't pull the reserve on a 200K car at 50K. Now I find out that the reserve got pulled because the bank owned the car and was cleaning house. Great auction. That was the best collection of musclecars at auction ever. There were good deals and bad deals but for the most part it looked to me that people paid pretty fair prices for cars. Next year should be even stronger.

clill (Charley) Congrats on the sale.. I was there with my boss and our shop crew ,Vail's Classic Cars, we were to the right of you in the corner with the 3 Mustangs and the 70 Dodge Charger..... I went over there a few times just to stare at it... wow to see the "Malitude" in person!!!

tellyv....... Feel your Pain on the no sale... we got ripped on our time slot, suppose to be 10pm they got us in there at 11:12 PM..... heck nobody there.. maybe 40 people max.
The money ate us too. Took 5 cars, means 5 trucks and trailers, and the shop is only 30 minutes away.. still a big exspense.
Did sell 1 at 10:am, good crowd then.
Don't know what happened but the paper work for all 5 was sent and received at the same time, but 1 at 10:am and the other 4 at 10:pm?

tellyv Went and seen your Cuda in person.... man it is simply awesome!! great ride enjoy driving it!!

Cant remember his screen name but there was a chap there selling a red Pro=Touring Camaro rag top, with a mean 502 in it, it didnt sell either.
It was a sharp car, got to speak with him for awhile while he was in the setup lanes, good to chat with.

I was glad to see the Pro-Touring style cars represented there...

Sucks you didn't sell the car. From the pics, it looks like a killer car.
BUT, everything happens for a reason. SO,...I would do exactly what you said about storing it and making it a more track-able car. Especially if you don't need to sell it. Why take a bath on it, right?
GOOD LUCK MAN!:thumbsup:

You should have to pay for your spot according to the time you run it's not fair that I had to pay 1k and so did someone with a good time slot, I should have done some more homework I would've paid 500 for a decent spot on friday than 1k for a ****ty spot on saturday. It's done and over with time to move on.

Congrats on the sale Charley. If somebody told me I wasn't going to outbid the guy it would make me want to run him up a little. That is if I could afford it if I got hung out there for some reason. I am told the buyer was from Lexington, KY. Doesn't seem far enough away to require travelling in a jet, but what do I know I am just a simpleton from Wisconsin.

How about charging based on the time slot they promised vs. what they actually delivered? That would be a nice goodwill gesture if they refunded part of the consignment fee if your car no saled when it ran an hour or more later than their projected time.

Realistically, Mecum would probably sell better percentages if they split the sale up into two lanes, maybe by reserve price.

Yeah I complained to Dana he said he'd send me a check back we'll see how much? I should have sold a picture taking fee I would've made my reserve!

Was this dyno with the stock LS2 cam?

yeah, they've made well over 1000 hp with that cam.

Jody

After seeing this auction I'd have to send my car there instead of Barrett Jackson and sleep easy.

Just make sure you get a good time, stuff sold well from early afternoon till about 7p.m.! I would go back if that was the case and mine actually ran within an hour of what they promisined. With all the attention my car had I thought it would do 85-90k.

No plans to sell, thanks for the advice though.

The problem with auctions is that you need at LEAST TWO bidders and 3 or 4 is even better... an auction with ONE bidder isn't an auction.

Doesn't matter if it's eBay or BJ.

The pros in the biz arrange some "phantom" bids with their buddies... to help things along. Good auctioneers - at a busy venue - can also 'help' the bid along but they're not risking that at a slow venue or for a single/newbie seller...
