Yes it is a Fiat Station Wagon, I didn't think anyone would be interested in it as it still has the casting sprues on it. The model is only the body-shell and interior. Is it of interest?
Are you kidding me Andy!

Fresh off the tree therefore chronic bomb!

Best of show gimme now LOL.

Yeah the Chevy 11 is nice ... The Camaro's are off the charts. My guess is that the hardcore will come for them.

OK Eric, I'll put it on auction tomorrow night on a 5 day listing so it will end on Sunday night with the others.
Thanks for the tip

Congrats to anyone that bought some of these. If you won a car and are reading this, please come forward, I'd love to hear which members got what.

The Aston was definitely the star of the show and its price doesn't surprise me. I think the Ferrari 250 LM's went too cheap and someone got a great deal on those. I bid on the blue one and had I bid what I originally intended would have likely won it, but have to put a down payment on a real car this week so I had to bid low.

the aston martin is going to russia - a little risky with russian postal system so it will have to be well insured!!!! Very pleased with the outcome of the auctions. Surprised how cheap the 2 Ferrari LM's went for, the blue one is a stunner. A couple more MGB's to list then that will be the lot gone. Picked up a couple of nice Dinkys today but not in the same league as the Pre-Pro models.
Thanks to all

Please package these cars bulletproof Zig. Mini Dinky is famous for crumbling during shipping. In fact, I have a Mustang bought and paid for here for Swifty and he is willing to wait until our next personal visit to receive the car.

Cheers

I won 4 of them. I won't be eating for the next month.... but nah, the tax return came at a most opportune time. I bid on the Aston Martin for a while but with the others I was at my comfort limit.
Coming my way:
Fiat wagon
Red 250 LM
Camaro
GT40.
Luckily I added an extra $40 on the GT40 at the last minute which secured the win.
I had bid on 3 others but once I lost those I shifted extra money to others. It was actually quite a stressful morning following so many bids.
I was glad the Aston passed my limit in time for me to add to my bids for the others.

That's awesome congrats! I had a feeling you might go for the GT40, it will go great in your collection of GT40's! Please post some pictures once you get them in hand. I'm glad you got the red Ferrari too. I'm still kicking myself for not bidding higher on the blue one. I had planned on going pretty heavy for it, until the new car sprung up on us.

yeah you know me and GT40s. The blue 250 looked nicer than the red one but again you probably know I like red Ferrari's.

What kind of car did you get?

We haven't actually pulled the trigger on one yet, but hopefully in the next day or two. She had an Accord that we were leasing that we were going to just buy out, but they must have really wanted it back as they waived about $1500 in damage from a wreck we hadn't fixed yet and the excess mileage charges so we figured out on Thursday that it made more sense to just turn it in, which left us scrambling to find a replacement. She's pretty set on an Infiniti G37, so we have about 2 days left to find one for the right price now.
