| Thats the price I remember, I thought you said a few posts back that you had paid 8k- 8500? I honestly don't remember,but I don't think it was much more then that.I have some old flyers out in the garage somewhere.I don't even think the beginning price was over $10k |

After it didn't sell with the Plexi lid and leather bra, I did Pay Charlie to go to town on it alittle..just a quickie to see what was underneath that wood dam/bra,etc. It might have gone up a couple of grand after I had to pay Charlie $2g's or so.
Did you pay $11k ? That would make sense |

Rich- She was bananas so I kicked her to the curb 10 years ago. She's now married and just had a kid. I have a photograph somewhere of her standing next to Money Mike's old slammed '58 Kombi from back then. It was funny because she didn't look all that short standing next to it since it was so laid out...
