    The seller is way out in dream land on the price. Unfortunately old customs are hard to sell even if it is a Barris built car. As an exmple the Harry Bradley designed and built restored 51 chevy only brought 25k at a auction held at the Peterson.

    Did this car actually sell for 25K or is that just the top bid? I'm not a custom guy, but I absolutely love this car!

    Hard to believe but Harry Bradley's La Jolla did sell for just under 25k, it was at the Whitworth auction.

    Somebody got a real steal on that one, Saw it at the GNRS after the sale. The amount of documentation that went with it was amazing
