I've been to quite a few auctions but never bought anything..............

because I never ever saw a bargain, generally the lots went for more than there were worth

I've heard of bargains but never seen um

itching to buy something else

art b · October 31, 2009, 08:49:03 AM

i wonder if their bidding ..or if thay have bought anything....

Gator · October 31, 2009, 11:31:00 AM

twas an ace morning

met up with Mat (cuban pete) and family for a chinwag didnt buy anything had my eye on a very nice clean 59 ford pickup turned out the frame was a little bent still went for £4,500

a very decent ambulance went for £500

the one i really liked was military hospital bus same as the school busses huge great olive thing just park it in the back garden whip the seats out and instant uber cool workshop

the delorean was super straight but dont know what it went for as we had gone by then

cuban pete · October 31, 2009, 01:34:41 PM

yup , good morning and the kids are muddy as feck

we should have bought the ambulance..

Gator · October 31, 2009, 02:07:50 PM

the bus

i would have to crane it over the house

look out for them cars on ebay

cuban pete · October 31, 2009, 03:04:22 PM

The mrs really liked the bus , wonder what it went for ?

a91_formula · November 01, 2009, 03:52:05 AM

We went to this too :) small world.

The Delorean went for £9500 in the end - not bad for a non-runner lol

Did you see the green Caddy - we had our eye on that, went for £580 in the end

We were there in the Astro with a friend in his 2000 Camaro - glad the van was AWD

silver Astro red maro? if you saw the guy on crutches that was Mat i was the bald geezer in the black leather jacket

me and Nick test drove and offered to buy that caddy 5 years ago for 2k

the guy was always unrealistic with his prices hence a lot of useable kit was rotted out all the trucks had been sat for years with windows missing coz he wanted stupid money still he was a nice enough chap and a true petrolhead

Yep that was us

. I did see a guy on crutches and thought he was mad in all that mud

The 59 Ford was nice too - shame it was bent, but i guess it wouldn't take much to re-jig it.

The Dodge day van was pretty straight too - think that went for £2k. Not sure about the Ambulance, would need a lot of patients to restore that

Motorama · November 01, 2009, 04:21:51 AM

i guess we can expect lot's of tat on Ebay the next few weeks

cuban pete · November 01, 2009, 11:18:43 AM

I'm not mad , just commited

Gator · November 02, 2009, 02:03:29 AM

borrowed some pics from aacuk

Mat apparently the stuff that wasnt there is on ebay from a seller in worcester

cuban pete · November 02, 2009, 09:54:30 AM
