Lots of time/$$ into this custom job:

It's a bit much for me though. I have not a clue what it will sell for.......

He had it on craigslist out here about a year or two ago, wanted crazy money for it, will be interesting to follow at auction. Lets all take a guess, I think $8k.

Although I didn't see it posted in the ad, given the seller's history, I'd guess he'll have a RESERVE on it....... and it won't be met........ no sale.

If it does sell, I'll guess it'll go for..... $6,800.

In general, I don't like it. Especially the way he smoothed the front upper valence panel. But what do I know...

As I said before, it's clean & all, but it's just not my taste....

I'm surprised it went that cheap!
But even at $3,500,,,,, yep, i'd pass.
