    Sweet! Red w/white interior, and red carpeting. Too rich for my blood. Though would have liked a shot at the Supercharged concept which is now in Dallas, TX. That one went for 60K and change. However, I may have had trouble finding an adept auto-technology geek who would be capable of getting the SC running.

    Lindy, It was an SC concept and never meant to have a running SC for show. Like the Sport Roadster, it's not licensible either, so the owner has no incentive to make it work.

      tonight is the night. Auction starts at 6:30 pm, I assume Pacific time.

      Does anyone know if they broadcast it or will we just have to watch for news videos of it?

        IF I COULD AFFORD IT AND IT WOULD RUN AT ALL, I WOULD DRIVE THE WHEELS OFF OF IT HERE IN EAST TENNESSEE. WHO WOULD KNOW?

          Ron: It was always driven to it's display spot the two times that I saw this Bird. Sure would look good in my garage as well.

                    sigh, I could have waited and not bought any of the retros I did, and waited for this one to come out. It went for about 10grand less than the SC concept last year.

                      I too am surprised at how low the selling price was. Estimated selling price per the RM catalog was $125-175K.

                        Dot:

                        Any perspective on why these unique cars sold for such low prices? Did they go to market too soon, or maybe too late? Do you think that because they (technically) could not be registered for highway use, or for that matter were not even powered, was a factor?

                          Perhaps it had to do with the miserable performance of our economy this week. People with money aren't eager to spend it in these uncertain and troubled times.

                            They were powered, Skip, but not for the road like we would want to use them for. They did have a limited type of buyer because they were not road worthy - just a museum piece. I wouldn't know if it was too soon or too late on selling them. We're about the only ones that seem to want to see them. Sure hope whomever bought it figures out that I want to know where it's going to.

                              I'm suprised that no one noticed the bumper covers. There are no gaps that's one thing I think ford could have done better on the production line. The fit is some what less than first rate.
                              That concept PRC is seemless a very nice job. Wish that had carried over to production.

                                I'm sure folks participating in these auctions aren't concerned about their economics. Contrary to the media hype, not everyone is standing in bread lines.
