Whoops. I guess BAT isn't like eBay. You enter an actual bid, not a max bid. Oh well.

Agreed. But it doesn't provide near the drama.

On the other hand, it puts all interested parties on notice. They get to stew about for a few days before the animal spirits force them to do unreasonable things .
I'll just keep puffing up the value proposition to goad them on

Well it's up to $12K, any more and I'm out.

$20k with the potential for as much as $12k from Raby...plus shipping to and fro...plus refreshing and updating this car (new Litronics at $2-3k, bumper spray job at least) is a steal???? 40th AE's really worth that much or do you guys just make an order of magnitude more than I do each year, lol? Dammit...I knew I shoulda become a male prostitute and not an engineer.

You won't make a profit at that price and you probably can't even resell it for that price, but it's still a good deal for what you are getting.

I wouldn't pay much over the current bid either. 12+shipping on the engine, another 3 for shipping and sales tax, at least 3 to fix the interior and exterior, new clutch, you could end up under water real fast and still not have a perfect car.

Slakker clearly bid to frighten everyone else off a preemptive strike.
One day it will be valuable and we will all kick ourselves for letting Slakker buy it for just $12k.
