So is the part about it being a numbered/special built truck BS then?

Nice custom truck. I think we should do a poll on how much we think it will bring.

Sorry I don’t have anything here at work to resize the pictures with.
Maybe someone can post a small photo for me.

I'd rather have your ride

awesome truck

86swb · 12-08-2006, 01:10 PM

If I say I would rather have your ride also, would you also add me to the list for your truck?

86swb · 12-08-2006, 02:06 PM

Maby we should start putting numbered and signed on the parts we sell on ebay. Maby we would get higher bids-Think??

I can see it now:

This item for sale is one of only two factory exhaust manifolds ever used on 86swb's legendary truck!

Hoods69BadBowTie · 12-08-2006, 10:30 PM

I think it looks pretty sweet. Little over kill on a couple things but still nice ride.

bigblock73 · 12-09-2006, 12:58 PM

You can't blame auction houses for the inflated collector car/truck prices...you can blame the people who bid and pay for them.

It doesn't bother me that some vehicles go for crazy amounts of money, I am just glad they see the vaule, collectibility, and importance of these machines...it will keep them around that much longer.

BTW - the truck isn't too bad. I don't care for some things on it, but it is a nice truck and the craftmanship looks pretty good to me.

boatpuller · 12-09-2006, 01:10 PM

yeah high prices are good for our trucks value...but,it's just like the housing market ...cool when your selling at that rate..not so cool when buying.

chevyrestoguy · 12-10-2006, 12:42 PM

I do agree with what you guys are saying, I guess what bothers me the most is the fact that the days of finding a good deal for a sensible price are rapidly going away. Maybe I should start looking at from a seller's view, and just be glad that what I have is worth way more than it used to be. Hell, I've got more projects than time, anyway.

So did this truck go through yet?

Looks like it has a high lot number.
1537 will probably go tomorrow late afternoon.

75Chevy90Kawi · 01-20-2007, 04:38 PM

that engine compartment is gorgeous. too bad about the rest of the truck

killthewabbit · 01-20-2007, 10:47 PM

It's 9:00 central, and they're on lot# 1310 with two hours on the air to go. Looks like this one is going during the day tomorrow.

84slopwaggin · 01-21-2007, 12:00 AM

I seriously doubt we see it on the air. Probably will be shown during commercial. I haven't even seen any 67-72 trucks as of yet.

method2mymadnes · 01-21-2007, 02:54 PM

That truck just sold for $36,000.

84slopwaggin · 01-21-2007, 04:31 PM

So was it televised or not? What do you guys think of the price it sold for? Alot of vehicles are sold for less than the cost of the build, and I bet that includes this truck.

method2mymadnes · 01-21-2007, 04:35 PM

yep, it was televised. i am sure he probably had more in it than it sold for.

84slopwaggin · 01-21-2007, 04:42 PM

Darn I missed it. Did any of you guys see the young man last night bidding on the mustang if I remembered correctly. I believe it sold for 250k.

killthewabbit · 01-21-2007, 05:41 PM

Don't cars almost always sell for less than what the owner has in them? Someone could probably find a way to put 100K into a 74 Pinto, but it would be pretty much impossible to get 100K out of a 74 Pinto. This seems especially true for cars that aren't incredibly popular, i.e. our trucks.

Of course, this also means we can afford to buy more of them (73-87 trucks that is, not 74 Pintos).
