Good deal, NYG.
Here's your chance...

Considering what I've read about on the CSX fiberglass in another thread, I'd be very hesitant to buy a fiberglass CSX, especially w/o personally checking it out.

Anyway, Rodney, I'm pretty sure NYG wants a "real" aluminum CSX for $50,000 or less.

With an all aluminum side oiler, this car is way under priced.

Unless "Real One" was wrong!

I think Real One was referring to the aluminum CSX market, but I could be wrong. He was saying that his car's value was $240,000 or thereabouts based upon his replacement cost.

Gone for just a couple months and already talking about me?

Wrong? Moi? hardly.

Just like Becker says the Continuation cars are no different than any other car in that there are great ones, good ones, bad ones and terrible ones. Same with the original series.

I can't comment on the car in question as I have never seen it and don't know that much about it. However, if the car was completed by HRE it is probably a very nice car. HRE is one of the best.

Nice car! Obviously, I like the color. And hey! That looks like one of mine and Mickmate's air filter setups on it! Well, no wonder the reserve isn't met!

I didn't realize in my first post that it's a SB.
That'll certainly hurt.

102 miles in 7 years sounds like a DD by my standards.

New auction listing's lead photo looks like a kid is driving a toy pedal car.

Head is above the windshield frame, knee up near the dash, even the hand placement adds to the cramped image.

Upside down image in an auction of a 100K article makes me think that whoever buys it will need to put a wrench on every bolt to make sure it was tightened the right way.

I think you lost most of us on your post. Not sure what you are talking about.

Under priced. So, what is he not telling us about the car?
He also reserves the right to pull it any time. Just fishing?

I'm always leery of $100K cars being sold through the poor, slightly out of focus lens of a cell phone.

Agreed. Interestingly, I found this car listed a number of places, including this one where it is listed at $75,500!

You have to inspect every used CSX car just like you would do on any used car period. There are good ones, there are bad ones and then there are just really bad ones!
