$63k for a Turbo T/A? Yikes, even with 7k miles.

i'm doing the fantasy bid thing and went over on the Truck Trike by $500 and over on the T-bird by $1,000. so basically i'm screwed in the points because you dont get any for going over! trying to win a 26" flat screen!!!

I just bid on the old Chev coupe, we'll see what happens.

Good luck, as I am leaving for Vac Thursday night and won't see most of the auction.

That's what I thought too! I thought the turbo motor was "undesirable".

PRICES ARE INSANE TODAY.. If this holds up friday and sat will set records.. pretty sure its just the inexperined buyers paying crazy money today though..

P.S. the T/A was a very nice car and I wanted it I thought it was a 25k car and told myself Id even pay 30k boy was I wrong!!

TA was a very low mile car but cars were bringing great money for what they were.

No Mystery about it. Nice Late Bandit aditions have been hot for years.

The guys who wanted these cars when they were young and could not afford are now stepping up to the plate because Now they have the money and now they are going to get what they wanted years ago.

You are right the 301 Turbo was challanged with a less than great turbo oiling system that caused early turbo failure, and overall ran mid 17's all day.

I drove two seperate 301T T/A cars that my friend had new. Both were so slow... by comparison my 2bbl 383 '67 Chrysler Newport would stay right with either at WOT.
