Who is Ed Meyer, I've heard the name mentioned before.

I'm wondering the same thing. Saw some HIGH prices on stuff that's for sure!
I found it interesting that the buyers premium was 23%!

I placed a few bids on some of Stevens stuff,but lost.
While registering to bid,I found out if I won anything sitting at home and bidding through the keyboard,I'd have to pay a 20% buyers fee..(18% if I go and bid in person)
plus a 7% Indiana tax,that EVERYONE has to pay regardless where you live,and a 3% credit card fee if I paid with such,=30% of the amount bid right there.
Plus they have to ship the item to me at their discretion,so there's another significant amount right there too.
I am honestly glad I didn't win anything,but I just had to bid on the stuff I wanted to own.

Ed is a Shelby diehard that lives for cars. If you wanted someone to look at a Shelby for you he would be one of the best guys. He went nuts when I bought the Supersnake off of Ebay. He was trying to get Shelby guys to buy it and instead the only guy that would pull the trigger was me, a guy he considers a Chevy guy. Been bitching about it ever since.

To be clear, this sign WAS NOT part of the Steven Juliano Estate offering.

Steven wouldn't have let that sign within a mile of his place.

Thanks Charlie. I believe I've seen him referred to as an expert on BOSS 429's?
Is he a big memorabilia collector or why did he suggest Steven buy the stuff?
I thought the Schwinn Krate bicycles were really cool, not sure how Steven found all this perfect NOS stuff!

Steven wasn't a Yenko fan Bob?

Heard it said that he only collected original stuff, not reproductions or fakes.

Ed is the Boss 429 oracle
69-70 Shelby oracle
69-70 CJ and especially SCJ Mustangs
The rest of Shelby's he knows simply because he's immersed in the blue oval Ford world
Also a Mopar fan

Steven was on a flight and Ed walked by to sit at the back of the bus, he was wearing a Ford shirt. He went back to talk to Ed and spent the rest of the flight in coach. They couldn't have been more different. The love of our silly old cars took over and these two nuts had one of the most incredible relationships in car world

Steven's daughter called him Special Ed and that is the name he is fondly known by in Ford world to this day

I know the pair wore out multiple vehicles doing what American pickers did before anyone knew what that was

One of the good guys
