Just wondered if anybody was impressed by this "original" cross ram car on ebay, and how high the bidding had gotten.

I was amazed, until I poked around in the Bidding History- "Number 6" is obviously one of his friends, jacking the price up, conveniently staying below the insane reserve. Click on "View" for Number 6, and you'll see that he has bid 37 times on 16 different auctions, all by this same CON MAN seller!

Couple hours later... it suddenly isn't for sale any more. Can't help wondering if somebody let him know that they were wise to him. I looked at "Completed listings" for this guy, and he had a 1946 Chevy pickup with a real high reserve last week, and he ended that one early as well. Kind of hard to believe that he found a local sale.

 

Yeah people do that all the time. Driving a bid up with other bidders is a common practice on internet auctions. Nice car. Not sure I wold part with 70K for it though... he would have better luck selling it at Barret Jackson.
