Tired 1963 Pontiac, One Dead Owner, Offers In Region Of £226,521
by Anorak | 14th, November 2008
AN eBAY auction for the 1963 Pontiac LeMans Tempest (left) is a credit-crunch busting story that gives hope to memebrs of the Anorak carpool:
The advert:
Obtained after owner died. Appears to have original interior but no motor, no transmission. Body has a little rust and some dents. There’s stuff in the trunk, but no key to open it. Opening bid nine days ago was a mere $500.
As he says:
After one week, eBay seller 123ecklin will pocket $226,521 before auction fees. What happened between Day 1 and Day 9 is an amazing story.
Nearly going once… stalling twice…
