I missed it last night, I'll catch the replay.

Pretty neat!!!  A pair of Custom 300 Tudors...one white and one black.  Both YBlocks, one auto and the other manual.  Dog dish caps.  Both had prior paint and rust repair.  Rust repair typical of the time...little to no metal work and lots of filler.  Great buy but add shipping and profit margin...might be tough to double their money.  Still a great Kentucky find.

I saw it last night too. I think what they paid was retail for the conditions.   The best parts of the cars were the interiors.

   Those guys for the most part seem to buy cars in crummy condition.  Hope that these two work out for them.   Did you notice that the rear wheels were not turning when it was dragged out of the garage/shed?   They do know their bicycles and oil cans though. 
    Last week one of them paid over 3K for a used oil can.  Did you see that one?

Yep, 3k for an oil can....even if it were a harley item, they have that big money. History Channel money.

The one with the 66 Fairlane Gt they paid way to much for that car then spent 4-5 k making it run and roll .
