What the heck? I warned you. Now, what ever you do, if you value your marriage and bank account, don't click this link.

Totally safe for work and family friendly, just very dangerous.

If you opened that last link, you clearly have little to no concern for your sanity. In that case, go ahead and open this one.

No trailer (thank God), someone is close to one of these that I am sure of

Unless I am mistaken #1 is no Porsche.

Going to have to agree with you there. The electrical looks like a rats nest though.

I'd love to find someone to bid on #1 for me, but I bet the reserve is $20k+.

I think number 2 is already bid up to more than a fair price. I am pretty sure you can still find those that are still the proper length for $2k or less if you aren't in a hurry.

I tried to submit a bid on this one. When I did a window popped up that said "Pardon, I'm afraid you lack sufficient class to bid on this automobile. Isn't there a Cavalier out there you've had your eye on." Snooty Brits!

If I'm reading it correctly, that one has a clear - not salvage - title, correct? If so, why would someone sell a car like that on a site predominantly known for wrecks/salvage cars? Seem's like you'd probably leave quite a bit of $$ on the table to me.

Pete: I wonder if it was donated.

In reply to DrBoost:

I suppose that's possibly, but don't cars normally get donated to charitable organizations? That still makes me wonder why/how it ended up at a salvage auction.

Copart sells them for the charity. I got a clean title 450SL from Copart that was a charity donation.

The only real answer here is that Pete should buy it and let us know.

Oh trust me, there's temptation to do just that... However there isn't cash to buy this one!

I've always wanted a roller. A while ago I found iut that they have chain-driven window regulators. I was shopping for a buyer for one of my kidneys so I could buy one.

Is there away to see what the final bids were after the auction closes? I had a bunch of cars on my watch list, just to get a feel for how the final prices ran, and they all disappeared from my list when the auctions closed.

The Pantera appears to have been written off in a single vehicle crash into a lab of some sort.
