Surprisingly enough, they do. I tried to get a good spot at this auction. They said I applied to late, but they'd give me a way late or early time, or Sunday. No way....

Check my fb page for pictures Steve. It was built resale ready.. ;) .

Maybe it's just me, but this years auction looks kind of week in terms of high end customs/pro-touring cars. Friday usually has some heavy hitters. I'm just not seeing it this year.

I agree with Greg, I think alot of times it's a "who you are" type of deal. Just google some of the VIN's. Most of those cars have already been to BJ a few times, Mecum, ebay, dealers, etc. Alot of "been around the block" a few times cars. And you can tell who the dealers are when you see 5+ cars in a row all with the same backgrounds.

John Parsons Nova will be there, along with a bunch of others from the same seller.

I think the opinions here are pretty reasonable about car worth or possible price you could reasonably assume.

What price range are you thinking the car will bring?

That may give you some idea if your sweating taken the car there.

EGG SACK LEE -- and anyone that thinks otherwise is a fool ready to be parted with his money. My buddy takes 30 plus cars there (my Nomad will be one of his sales this time) and he is at EVERY BJ auction with a bunch of great cars (sales wise)… both as a buyer and a seller. THAT is who they care about.

They have to run 900 plus cars through there --- do ya really think they're all going to have prime time Saturday slots?? Somebody's car has to run first on Thursday and somebody's car is going to be the last one on Sunday. And if you think you're going to get top bids with those time slots - then :gitrdun:

I know when JF sold the yellow Chrysler wagon he ended up with prime time Saturday at about 6 and it was sold heavily all week prior. and still took a bath considering it was a great 8 can west coast custom of the year GG custom of the year I think. anyway Ron Pratt bought it (stole it) because no one else wanted it at 175,000

He STOLE a Chrysler wagon at 175K ? Who cares if it is a great 8 car. Yes that means it was a good car but the market for specialty cars like that is thin. Where else can you get 175K for that car ?

Agree… When they're full customs like that -- it's not what it cost to build -- it's who else wants it - and can afford to pay…

What would that Chrysler sell for on Ebay ?

1. OP question- Great time slot, My WAG- $125-140K
2. Mule vs. this car. Tough call. personally I think the mule will do $225K if people really know what they are looking at. If I had the coin, I would hands down buy it for it's historic value to our nitch in the market. However, that isn't an option.
3. Blake, I have the right picture to use in your sales promotion, just needs the caption.... "Only driven on Sundays!"

Only if he can get it started…:D

OUCH! :weld:
