Yeah one person bid the minimum I bid over them . Funny thing is I drove it home from Tampa to St. Pete, runs beatiful drives great. Saw a 2003 Mercedes ML430 that sold at the auction for just under 6k on the side of the road with steam coming out of the hood .

Ive been there a couple times and thier stuff goes way high, for action prices. If you know anyone with a dealers license, go along with them to a dealers action, it will make you sick what cars go for

I've always wanted one of those to build. Smokeshow and I have some gnarly plans for one

Jay Leno has one, called a "Shogun" - has the Taurus SHO V6 motor in it, with a big shot of nitrous, and some super wide fenders. Oh yeah, the motor is in the "hatch" and powers the rear wheels
