Ok, I received quite a bit of hate mail for the freon...Yes I could have charged it...I also could have changed the belts, hoses, and all of the fluids...But the idea is that I am selling it to someone for a complete restoration..and maybe my $50k figure is light.... Who knows. But I do know that if a pair of Mcqueen's sunglasses fetched $70k last year, the car has to be worth something!

If I start fixing it, I don't know where it would end...

Unbelievably , the air suspension works great...Go figure.

Im proud to say I was the first bidder on that car. It went above my bid in 15 minutes.

If I was Bill Gates, do you have any idea how many of your cars I would own Herb?

I would have said and done the same thing. You dont know what kind of can-o-worms you might have opened by charging up the A/C. I feel your auction is honest and straightforward.
