If I had to lose to a last second bid (got down to 12secs at $29,000), I am glad it was to you.

Congratulation @groovzilla

Now, this has me really thinking... the seller made very little effort in answering to people's issues and concerns, and yet the car sold more than what (most) people thought it would.
So much for any PPI, compression test, leakdown, or IMS questions...

Thanks guys!! Fun to win 2 in a row!! Getting close to Top-Shelf!
Been a hell of a day - Just signed closing documents/paperwork for the selling of our rental house and purchase of our Hood Canal Beach house! So freakin happy right now.
Of course a drive downtown tomorrow seeing all the homeless encampments will ruin it so may as well enjoy tonight.!
Taking wife to Semiahmoo Resort tomorrow for her B-day.

I think it would be fun to bid on fellow RL Member 997 so lets do this!!

Congrats Groov! Strong bids already on this one. The 991 rims work IMO.

$44,000

I agree. I think the $3k+ suspension helped at the end.
