Long story but the short version is I was told I would be on primetime which included speed. I was told by there main rep if I gave them 1100 I would get this for my money. So I was supposed to go on at 6. They were running way behind. Speed turned off at 8 pm as did all Internet sales. My truck rolled a crossed the stage at 10:30 no speed channel no Internet and the bidders went from standing room only to 200 people. I got screwed. Cost me at least 20000. I could have sued but it's not my style. Not to mention I have no faith in our legal system. The guy with the most money wins. In this case they would just drag it out. So I took it like a man and vowed never to do that again. I put my heart and sole in that truck and I made the decision to take it there so it's my fault. Yes they treated me ****y and that's on them. It's a total scam. So get it out there so no one makes the same mistake. Also they people that work there are rude as hell

Re: 66 DiBella (means of the beautiful)

That truck is an awesome piece of work for sure. And the story about selling it at Barrett Jackson is a shame. I work with a guy that lost 30k in a joint effort on a 70's Cuda there. Congrats on the recognition of the truck, I guess that is what no one could ever take away, the quality of your work and being recognized by your peers for it. Good job.

Thanks for all the kind words guys. I kick my self in the butt everyday for selling that truck. Oh well I put the money on my house so now I owe less on it. It hurt to sell it for that kind of money and barrett jackson was very unfair with me. But such is life. It is very cool to be in the mag twice.

Re: 66 DiBella (means of the beautiful)

WOW is all i can say... I just read through both your builds (this and the 67) and you do incredible work. Sweet to see your old 67 made it into another mag but too bad on the sale. anyway like to see this one through and the tahoe when you start it. your work and ideas are great and inspiring, keep it up!

Nothing wrong with being different and following your own path! Money is money, but the pride you have in seeing something in your head come to life is what it's all about!

I think it's time to let this wound heal, and move on.

Everyone should be excited about DiBella and the next Steiny creation!

Devin is right i am over it. Not to mention 66 dibella will be 10 times the truck that second chance was and I would say that weather I sold the truck or not. I really think that the 66 will be a nicer truck and more user friendly. I loved my 67 but I can tell you it was not a great riding truck because the c notch and rear suspension were on the truck when I bought it. It rode like a pogo stick not to mention a blower motor kind of sucks on the street. Looks cool as hell but thats about it. Any way glad you guys like both creation and I am super proud of my father, uncle, waynee clevland and I for building the truck in my dads garage. I think it proves you dont have to pay 150+ to build a car or truck to have a top ride in the us. Shows will always be political but magazines seem to be very fare.
