No it isn't, Ted. I was just trying to keep Phil out of town. 
Collector auction -- Philly area

- Start date
Ted,
That's cool, your lovely wife buying a 62 09' car for you guy's to have fun in !
Sorry to hear that you gave up the Harley's. I've been riding bikes for over 40
years. Had a real bad crash (woman pulled out in front of me on highway, T-bone
@ 55 mph) that came real close to killing me. She left me for dead. Drove off.
A witness drug my body off the highway. When I was in the hospital recovering
(parallized from waist down) I didn't want to ever even see another motorcycle!
I recovered, quickly, I might add. I was only down 2 weeks. That same spill
would probably kill me now! :eek:
Anyway, I couldn't stay off of bikes. Got back on as soon as I recovered. Been
riding ever since. My current ride is a Harley Davidson Ultra Classic. Absolutley
love it.
Have you ever rode a H-D Ultra ?
Just a thought.........

Thanks for the wife compliment!!
I'm glad you survived and jumped back on a Harley.
Yes, I've been on an Ultra Classic sweet cadilac bike lost a good friend on one right after our helmet law changed a 72 year old man caused the same accident as yours, we live in the Tampa Bay area and there is too many folks trying too kill bike riders with their cars not on purpose but with their mind being in a hurry to get no where.
We own a piece of property 50 miles north of here on a little river. I only have two more years till retirement or sooner if they would just buy me out after 33 years too date. Probably once we can spend more time at the river then weekends, we'll probably get bikes again as it's beautiful up at the River.
Keep riding and driving safe!!!!

I have a pile of these...think they'll take 'em? 
Yes to both.. !5% is added to the final bid and the deposit is for the bidder's padel. YOu get it back at the end of the auction or when you turn it in.
Are you going?

Were there last night,where are they listed today????
Last night 7 pages of items were listed on E-Bay,including all of the cars ,a hugh number of motors ,heads,intakes,trannys,etc.They had a complete description of all the parts listed with lot numbers and basic starting bid prices.They were trying to get people to register early and possibly bid to drive up the opening prices.This morning(Sunday) I checked E-Bay again and everything had been pulled.Seems like something shady going on here?????? .I believe there is some sort of listing in regular E-Bay,use Doc's number in previous post.

I did a search for the item number you gave and then clicked on "View seller's other items". Got a WHOLE bunch of listings! Some coins on the first two pages but the cars start on page two. I haven't looked any further. Here's the link to all the items:

If you are in attendance, and there is an "on line" auction going at the same time, how do you know you're not being conned by the auction company about the bids coming from ebay?
Also, how do the ebay bidders know, in real time, when a bid changes and they have been out bid? I'm beginning to think this whole thing is a real shifty. I also don't like the idea of a 15% buyers premium that was stated on the auctioneer web site when the auction first appeared. Now the ebay listings say a 20% buyers premium. Who do these auctioneers think they are? BJ? :evil

Doc,its not you,the auction company posted the stuff in E-Bay instead of E-Bay Motors. John
