Looks like BJ is going to use it for advertising. There is a half page BJ ad in my SEMA News with a pic of the Cuda stretched accross the ad. I hope he breaks the bank and builds something wilder!

All the cars at Barrett are no reserve but he has the option of buying it back by paying the buyer and seller comissions. Barrett has the highest chance of hitting a home run of any of the auctions so I can see why he is taking it there.

16% on $750K is a HELL OF ALOT OF MONEY! assuming it brought that and Bob didn't let it go. Me and a million other people wish we had that kind of disposable income. Kudos for Bob proving the car before it disappears into into someone's private collection.

I agree with the above, what was proven? Hey maybe I missed the Here is you Daddy numbers??


Incredible car but I am a little missing something how a site dedicated to driven cars honors a car simply for driving? A burnout or two? It is his car and his to do what he see fit. I agree that he is one of the few that even did drive such a high end car but what message is being set when a car simply is driven? For $750k I might expect to know it's performance. A Ferrari Enzo is $500k and has had it's performance proven weather you like the out come or not.


I can't wait to see what that car brings. It has been driven which means it has to have wear showing and the tuck em away guys might not like seing that. The hardcore performance guys I am sure would be all over that with a solid 0-200-0 number. Heck I think BJ probably should be throwing some fee his way as it will draw them in big time. Besides the build I am sure there a a ton of extra fees including repairs that have to be added up to show a break even price. That said I think it will bring the $1 million as it just might be the most known Hemi ride out there and no wait to get it built!!


Good luck with the sale and can't wait to see the next.
