I missed the description of the ZL-1 engine but saw it sell for 80k. What was the deal with it? Why so much?

I thought that I heard him say that during the marketing campaign, he was fighting the press which said that the car was only worth a couple of hundred thousand dollars.

Rumors got out last night that the buyer is also an AZ resident which could mean he'll spend another 8-10% in in state taxes.

The more I hear Craig Jackson make his little comments, the less I think of him. I sometimes wonder about the objectivity of his auctions compared to others.

April Rose (The only female on the Speed cast) should go back to being a brunette [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img]
She looked awesome as a brunette in the first shows she did a few years back.
That bleached blonde bimbo look has got to go [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/no.gif[/img]
