Default B-J Auction; so who is the guy....

That won the LS6 Convertible and bid 4 million on the Futurliner, and just now won the Elvis Lincoln Limo?

He looks familiar but I just can't place where I know him from. Anyone know?

Now he bought the 29 P/U that Eric Perat and his crew at Pinkys Rod Shop in Colorado built for $190k, which was a steal!

Not exactly my style but a real work of art in the Street Rod world. Pinkys Rod Show has built several Ridler award winners and some of the neatest rods of the past 10 or so years. Eric is a real neat and down to earth guy too.

I thought that it would draw a lot more but maybe it didn't due to the fact that it has basically won nearly every award and it has already been in nearly every rod magazine.

There seems to be no pattern to his buying...he is buying a wide variety of vehicles; Chevy/Fords/Street Rod etc

What a neat collection he is amassing (or adding to!)

I just picked up the March 06 issue of Muscle Car Enthusiast.
In it they showcase a St. Petersburg,Fla. car collector named Todd Werner.
He has acquired more then 60 various cars in 3 years with room to spare.One of them,a 1966 Hemi satelite convert.,he states he will sell at Scottsdale come January.
He states he is seeking more specific cars for his collection.
He mentions he favors Nostalgic Race cars,in particular Mopars &amp; Chevies,w/a slant on Chevelles.
Shave off the Gotee and to me this looks like the same Bidder who won the Ray Allen/Briggs/Truppi-Kling LS-6 Convert.,among others @ B-J Scottsdale.
