They are auctioning off the 2nd production car tonight at 8:30. I have some more pics on the camera that I will upload later. Hated the back of the car until I saw it in person.

Here's a bunch of Bronco geeks at the auction on Wednesday evening. L-R: Andrew Norton (bajabronco), me, Randy from Driven 4x4 Parts, and Randy's dad, Chuck Harral. Chuck, until recently, owned an awesome old-school junkyard in Springfield, OR. I also had the pleasure of meeting forum member AndyP at the auction as well.

Top tip: find friends (in our case - Chuck and Randy) with bidders passes. They can get free drinks all day long!

Yes he did but it was a joke and may have sounded out of context.
He was pulling hard to get more money for our injured veterans.

I believe they just said Kurt Bush has an EB comin up this afternoon....

Seller pays 8%. 18% for BJ on each car is amazing. $9mil in sales yesterday, probably over $14mil so far 2.5 days. They've already pocketed $2.5mil in commissions

They are rolling in a lot in the commissions, but the overhead for running an auction like this is equally astronomical. I hate to think of what the daily operating costs are.

Yeah, but it's enough to "pay the bills" so far. Relatively speaking of course...

Not sure if this has been posted or not, but I didn't see it here. This is worth checking out when you've got a few minutes and some drool-towels handy.

Nope. We sold all of ours. Bid on the Copo Camaro and the Dick Harrell Camaro, but did not win.

Just not the right price huh...

Glad you got all yours sold

In hindsight, we should have stayed in the Copo longer, it went for a song.
As far as getting sold, everything gets sold unless its one of their Salon cars with a reserve.

Really surprised that none of the Bronco guys hit me up while they were there.

I should have called you but the time just seemed to fly past. It was an amazing week. The restomods were off the charts and I ain't talkin' bout trucks...

I haven't seen one go across on speed yet? Has one been seen on TV ??

I think I saw 3 or 4 get a spot on TV. They talked about them quite a bit.

Covered in dust (note the smiley face drawn on the hood). Unacceptable - my truck sitting out in the driveway right now has less dust on it than this

The guy would literally have to dust it off every year with the amount of foot traffic through those open tents. If it was sold I could see not worrying about it but ya it was dirty

How has no one mentioned the black one that sold for $500k to charity?! I spent 20 mins drooling over that thing. The guys that built it were from Florida, nice guys. Knew a lot about the build. I think they said they have around $150k in it with labor. Tons of people around it

Red LUBR was a mess...

The Gulf Bronco

Spotted this in the parking lot:

I took 50 pics if anyone wants to see anything else
