    Hard to judge the lipsticked pigs from the quality builds even with online pics, but going by just this thread, the prices seem good although above my pay grade.

    Gee, looks like prices continue to drop for 40's and 50's cars.

    The 41 Willys was a local built/owned car,outstanding workmanship mainly a fairgrounds cruiser show car. He let it go a few years back, moved on to drivers for road trips.

    The 36 5W is ugly. Yes I said it. Ugly. 1991 called, they want their Model A tudor back. 59 Elco is also color-hibited, and at the bid price I'm guessing it was an easily detected mudpuppy. I might log in and take a better look, might not.

  19. I'm still checking at the end of the day. The magic of an auction is very relevant. 2 crazies make it fun to watch. :) Those of us that watch BAT are aware that it's unpredictable now as compared to 2 or 3 years ago.

    Local Fakespook Market Place has POS junker, tweeker Fail, Pile of **** parts 1957 chevy for $20K.

    Ya Know looking on fakespook market place for project cars/trucks, and glue sniffer sellers, way over priced junkers, compared to auction, restored, nice, complete, vehicles. You can get a way, way, way, better price/ value on a completely finished restored vehicle
