Auto Auction

CC Cowboy · April 1st, 2011, 08:41 AM

I went to an auto auction (estate sale) this past Tuesday and bought a 1967 427 Corvette Coupe. As it turns out I don't have a place to keep it. I have to get rid of it before they deliver it. If you know anyone that is in the market for this car let me know. I paid $23,000 for it. It has matching numbers, it's a black with white interior, like I said 427/435hp 4 speed, power windows, head rests, 76,000 miles, side pipes, mint ride. I'm the second owner (or would have been). I'd like to get what I paid for it but if I have to take less I will. I know I won't go any lower than $15,000.

"A" · April 1st, 2011, 08:53 AM

I bid you $2.00

CC Cowboy · April 1st, 2011, 08:58 AM

nothing less than $15,000

mrlmd · April 1st, 2011, 10:46 AM

Is the engine, trans, brakes in good shape? Have you driven it?
Where are you located?

The car is mint, so am I!

I'm currently waiting on the transfer of a 4 million dollar inheritance, as apparently, I am the last living relative of the Royal Nigerian family. As soon as the the $15000 check I sent them for legal fees to handle the transfer clears, I want it.

Otherwise, I'd have the $15000 for you today.

mrlmd · April 1st, 2011, 12:48 PM

Can't look at it or get it if you don't let anybody know where you are, or, more importantly, where the car is.
You can't post any pics?
Probably = Another scam. (?)

CC Cowboy · April 1st, 2011, 01:35 PM

The car is not a scam. It is in Florida. I've been getting so much attention for it on so many sites I can't keep up with the questions.

This is a one day sale. Tomorrow doesn't have the same affect on my posts.

Marc, I see you have a Honda PC800 and a Yamaha TW200. I think this car might be to much power for you. I would hate for you to buy it and then have to sell it right away like I have too.

This is probably another one of his April Fool's jokes!

jmgrande · April 1st, 2011, 03:20 PM

I saw the car today...GORGEOUS!

CC Cowboy · April 1st, 2011, 03:29 PM

Jon, I hope you enjoyed the test ride. I wish you would have filled the tank when you dropped it back off.

mrlmd · April 1st, 2011, 03:55 PM

I also have a Suzuki S50, you left that one out.
Can you let me know where the car is? I am also in Florida.
And jmgrande from CT saw it? He's visiting?
I agree with nattygirl that "This is probably another one of his April Fool's jokes!" and you've been caught because you can't deliver. Could have had a quick sale.

kkim · April 1st, 2011, 04:01 PM

I'll take it, Oscar!!!

I trust you... do you trust me??? I'm a bit short on cash right now, so can you send me $200 so I can overnight the check to you? You've got my word that I'll buy it!!

FYI, in case you don't know about these --
The S50 is a little rocket ship and will blow any other 800cc cruiser off the street, and the Ninja 250 you ride.
The TW200 is street legal to get there, but is for riding on the trails and in the dirt, offroad, and is like a mule.
The PC800 is a long (or short) distance very comfortable and well handling cruiser with more luggage space and carrying capacity than that 'Vette you imagine buying and then selling for an $8000 loss.
So it depends what day of the week it is and what I want to ride, rather than being limited to one crotch rocket.

CC Cowboy · April 1st, 2011, 05:05 PM

Marc, I hate to be a spoilsport but my YSR50 will smoke your S50. The 800 is just a scooter, and the TW200 is a mule. Good for pulling stumps but my KX250 will burn up the woods while you are being stumpy.

JM is down for spring break (these kids) and I'm selling the car to kkim since he came up with the best offer I've heard all day.

As far as the Ninja 250, I take it you haven't read the post about my new 250 with all the mods.

Hey - it's one thing to make fun of or ridicule a member, but you never diss his bike.

CC Cowboy · April 1st, 2011, 06:05 PM

Sorry Marc, I thought they were all compliments.

I can see the drinks are getting stronger as the day progresses.
