I ended up with the dirt tracker and the other 2 cars went to fellow rodders that will finish them . After the auction (I didnt have time to stay ) Rons daughter and a freind that was having Ron do a speedster for ,and I am finishing ,came by and dropped off the dirt tracker . She was satisfied the cars were going to people that appreciated his work .
http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=753970 A rat rodder did end up getting the pride and joy Ron built. I really wish this would have been mine. I'm going to try my hardest to make this mine. I can not afford the $4000, but hopefully he will help a young fella out. I really, really want this car. Maybe I'll have to sell off what I have started for my first build.
Good luck Beau. I'm bummed I missed the auction too. You probably would have saved some coin being there. That '27 is awesome, he based it off a Dale Klee picture and used it as his avatar.
Hopefully someone can grab this before it becomes some s****. I always looked forward to Ron's updates on this build.
I'm till trying!! It didn't sell on ebay for anything close to what he wanted. I already sent out emails to all the people I know begging for money. If I can own this, I'm gonna stop what I have worked so hard for in the past 10 months, sell what I have and finish Ron's car like Ron would have wanted. Crossing my fingers.
