It's up to $12,900 with less than 24 hours to go.

Any guesses on final price?

Over 200 watchers, this thing will go in the $20K plus range easily. That's what I'm predicting

Wouldn't surprise me a bit if it went into the $30's

Nice unmolested original deuces are worth a premium

US $13,225.00 with 27 minutes to go

Hopefully there is a flurry of bids at the end.

Wow, I'm shocked! I would have thought that would bring some bigger bucks than that.

Same here. My friend Dave wrote it up for Jerry. Two "mistakes" I pointed out was not ending on a Sunday and it should have ended at 11 PM eastern time so it would be 8 pm on the west coast.

Or at least later on Saturday for the "beer googles" effect

It makes a lot of sense to do it that way

Two of the guys on the triple forum were bidding on a certain part Jess had for sale. The "losing bid" guy posted he bid $325 for that part and just "missed it" by a few dollars. ( many people were bidding, over 50 bids were entered before it was over)

The guy who won posted and told him "No, you underbid by over $500. It was the last part I needed for my restoration and I want to ride. My max bid was $850 and there was no way I was going to miss out on that."

Some pockets are deep

When it's the last piece you need, and you finally find it, the price becomes almost meaningless.

Last night he told me he had a guy ask him what it would take for him to get it. Said he could pick it up next Saturday. I haven't heard anything since.
