Wasn't the estimate 1.2-1.5M?

Seems like it went cheap...

(not that I can afford it anyways!)

Thanks for sharing!

Thanks for all the pictures in the pics thread too!
I'll look through that every time I visit.

My "Zen" break during a day of fixing appliance cars.

Keeps me sane.

Now, I either need to win a Lottery or maybe write a book...

Wow!!! Wow!!! Wow!!!

My $ is going to the ASPCA when I kick the bucket.

Maybe it's time to put the car back on the market.

You know, sell the bucket of bolts & rescue a few more Chihuahuas.

CTTOI, the dogs are much more fun.

I'm not so familiar with that auction stuff ... but if it sold, why does the official auction homepage still says "Now Asking: $ 1.250.000" (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)
