I was shocked that he didn't drop the reserve. Sorry about the photo

I know the guy who listed it, he's an avid collector and seller, his only reason for taking it was he already has a really nice Stropp Baja and didn't really want two. Space or money isn't the issue with him, he turns quite a few vehicles a year. I looked at it right when he finished it, kind of an odd build, had a aux fuel tank delete (proved out with the Marti) front fuel door was actually welded shut, I'd never seen that before.

As for dropping the reserve, doesn't surprise me, he gets in his head what he thinks a car will bring and usually won't budge. But, he sells them somewhere, to someone and i think he nearly always finds the money he's wanting.

And for the rest of us, 70k reserves on EB's don't hurt ours...
