Re: 1961 Chevy Belair Sport Coupe Race Car
Just for kicks, what do you guys think this old girl is worth? Ya know, just in case the keyboard starts bidding on it's own.  Ed [/ QUOTE ] I think this car is a bargain, if I had the time and space it would be mine. Good Luck bidders

Re: 1961 Chevy Belair Sport Coupe Race Car
Just to let everyone know, I couldn't be happier that it turned out this way. The gentleman who bought this car is the original racer of it. It's like a storybook tale come true. He has his race car back. It was called the Mousetrap. There's a LOT of history and more photos. It was the most coincidental circumstance that he happened to see the car on ebay at his son-in-law's place the day before the auction ended. It was fate. It was meant to be. He's on cloud nine and so am I. The planets lined up on this one!
 I'm not sure if I'm crying because I had to give it up or because the original racer has it back. These things just don't happen that often.
