I am putting this topic up to talk about this amazing piece of car history here, which is just a tad under a month away. This is going to be exciting to watch and witness. Consider this a shop talk conversation (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

My estimation would be 15-20m and I would not be surprised it went much higher.

Apparently the auction started at a crazy high number by mistake and then they had to reverse it and at that point in time there were confusied bids being placed. The whole thing just was a mess.
