Power seat and CD player in 1955? It has to be wrong. I tried to find the contact info but none on the site. I will gladly pay the asking price. Heck I am willing to pay $10K

Take a good look...

... a '55 Gull wing with the following:

ABS, Airbags, Cassette player, Cruise control....

I believe this was on eBay last week and got yanked as being clearly fraudulent?

It would be a bad idea to hit Buy It Now and send the money...

The fitted luggage is worth at least $7995 if original.

I smell fraud. Send the seller an email. I'll bet they'll tell you the car is in Italy or somewhere, just waiting to be shipped!

Yeah- no way anyone is selling that car for $7995. I saw one photo, but still know that is easily a 6-digit car.

If someone actually did buy one of those for $7995, that would be the steal of the century.

Sounds like some of the SCAM e-bay is having trouble with lately, where someone hacks in and makes changes to listings, trying to rake in quick bucks. Check out some of the Harley Davidson Motorcycles for as low as $0.12 "Buy It Now" price.

Like Marvin Zindler says (and others), "if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is".
