Only 150 total castings were made and of that, only 4 are chase car versions. #4 will be auctioned off here, #3 will be donated to ADDWC and auctioned off at AutoFest and #2 will be inserted in a random Dinner bag. This is an opportunity to guarantee yourself this rare piece. This auction also includes copies of the mock up art.

That whole thing reminds me of the Ohio State marching band where they do the script "Ohio" and at first that's what I thought I was watching in some funny way. I think they do it that way to fool you on purpose and then get you in the end. If you stick with it that last guy does complete the "E".


He must be out hunting and it makes him late every time.:)

OMG!


I had the pain of moving over the weekend, took Friday off from work and found out that the phones will not be running in our rental until Tuesday this week so i had no way to check the bids or to send my congrats. I was thinking the car might to well but this is just amazing!!!!!!!

Lightningsquid, and all the others involved who bid really makes the show continue on. Make no mistake about it, without this passion and following there is no show, no options, no future. I thank you all. You are the best!

The AutoFest Mustang Pace cars hit 400.00.....
I think the WL Shelby Pace Car went for a major sum as well.

No doubt, that was a nice windfall!

I read that in a post later.Sorry to hear about it. Knew you had been bidding on the auction and figured that the forces of nature were telling you to stop bidding. You wouldn't have outbid me on this one, would you? :confused:

Still dont see how $400 is so high for a 1 of 4, yet 1 of 15-20? rubber tired zinger whites are bringing $600-$1000 on ebay these days. :rolleyes:

I would much rather have the car that you won.
