    I dont know if this the right way to post this link.

    Anyhow bid is at 2k. Talked to the owner. Real nice guy, about 82 years old.
    Says it just needs a battery and gas to run, top is good (has been replaced) needs 4 tires and drive home. less than 2 days till end of sale. I wish I could but my wife wouldn't be pleased and I am trying to finish a 72 olds cutlass drop top.

    But it's a no reserve auction. How can they refuse to sell it, without getting a negative, of course?

    The seller has zero feedback now, so I wouldn't be too worried about a negative if they don't release the car. It's easy enough to make up a new user name if they want to relist the car.

    Pretty tough to bid on a car with only 2 crappy dark pics and no description whatsoever. They should have looked into a listing agent like Electric Garage or whoever that could take some good high res pics and market the car properly. They would probably double thier money, if the car is solid.

    Only at $4k with a few hours left.
