If anyone is going to get over to Barret-Jackson on Monday, i need a car eyeballed that I would like to absentee bid on. (I am in florida for my Dad's 80th B-day and am missing the auctions for the first time in a Decade)
You need not be an expert on the brand, but just look for obvious signs of fraud or poor workmanship.
This car goes on the first day.......
If you can help, please PM me and I will give you details.

Thanks in advance ,

John

Thanks to Bruce for the help being my eyes. And thanks to Andy for the offer.
I was outbid and kept to my disicpline.
The car I wanted was the 71 440 Charger R/T with a 4 speed and great provenance. In my opinion it was easily the nicest car of the night and a great specimen of a rare car that I have been looking for , for many years.

Thanks again Bruce

As near as my eyes could tell, it was!

Johnny, sometimes you need to s t e p-u p, big guy - that was a great car and imho a good deal!If you've wanted one forever I don't know how many more opportunities you will get. We ain't getting any younger and you've got a little guy going off to an Ivy League school soon
