Congrats Curtis! Hope it brought as much as you wanted.

What a crazy day! When the listing FINALLY went up on BaT it jumped from an opening bid of $5k to $91967.00 over night and then sat there over the holiday weekend. Monday it went up to $93k and parked there for the remainder of the week. I had considered taking today off, but it didn't look like it was going to meet the reserve so I didn't call out. Work actually called and pushed my show time back to 3pm, which turned out to be a good thing. I was able to take a few calls on the car during the last 30 min, but still the bidding wasn't moving. The auction was set to expire at 1:05 and at 1pm bidding started, but very slow. Didn't look like it would go. I was talking to John on the phone and texting with Brycen when things started to take off. When it passed my reserve, I posted "Reserve Met" and that seemed to intensify the bidding. Probably not, but it seemed that way. Brycen asked what I really wanted for the car and I told him $150k, but I didn't think it would get there. Well.... I was wrong and happy to be so.

My ego wanted to beat the 68 that went for $130k, so that was a bonus.

It's a bitter sweet day and I will miss the car. It's a lot of fun to drive and I've had a great time with it.

Congratulations Curtis, well worth the money. I didn't think you'd have a hard time selling it.

That’s Savana. She’s super down to earth and easy going.

Oh I knew it would go. Question was if I could
Get a decent price for it. I did decent.

It was a great listing to watch.

A couple years ago I listed my SLP Camaro and it took them 3 weeks to get it listed. Absolutely zero promotion from them and horrible at best communication. I was hoping they would have got better but it sounds like they still have work to do.

Looking back I will ask to profs the listing and how they sort the pictures. I might even consider adding notes/comments directly on the photo with dates so people can see how the car started and how it ended up.

I love that you used Instagram to promote the car. Might try something like that as well.

You liked my comment about you being OCD. LOL
I was starting to think that maybe there was too many people gushing about how great a car you built. Like it was slowing down the bidding. It worked out though. congrats on the sale.
Now where is this new build of yours?

Yeah that didn’t hurt! 😂

Bought an LS7 and shipped it to Katech. Have to nail down suspension and then find a body still. It’s in the works.

Here’s the perfect body… I’ve decided to sell it:
