Anyone watching BJ? Atomic punk gone yet?

Im gonna sell my shit to Bret Micheals. And that homo can make tons of cash on it. And the winner can be his friend for life!!!!!!!!!!!

 

$40K for Jesse's car seems cheap...just look at the names that built it wow

 

Regardless of what it brought.......Aaron still rocks in my book and ranks up there with the best that ever was.....and gonna be.

Heres a tall cool one to the Plowboy and his creations right out of Uranus !!

 

OK well im out before i get pissed at some coments some ones making Arron built a bad ass car so grab a beer and chill out.

 

Sad but true.
After Tangerine Scream did well I had high hopes for the Punk.
Hope Doc got it---it's where it belonged in the first place.

Right?
I've lost even more faith in humanity tonight.

Doc did not bid.

600 HAMB bidders @ $40 each for material and shipping...I wouldn't touch it for less then $24,000

 

I posted this screen capture in Denise's cookie thread ... but thought it belongs here too.

Here is the deal with cars/motorcycle auctions this year... (at least what I've seen being at a lot of them)....

blue chip cars, full certified classics, top of their marque 100 point resto's, race cars with real history and rare old exotics.... have held their value, if not have continued to gain some value. we are talking $300k and up cars

middle value, very nice resto's but not complete 100 point earners, nice resto's on nothing particularly special model cars, race cars without any big race wins, so-so exotics... have been soft. Down anywhere between 10-30%

bottom feeders have been hard to give away.

 

And that gt40 go kart went for 48 k...WTF

 

My dad's at the auction and knew I was mostly interested in the punk. He was nice enough to send me this picture....

 

Aaron's Happy with the Out Come!!!

 

I think this should be a sticky as a stolen hot rod.

 

Congrats Aaron! We have been rooting for you!! Can't wait to see your next creation!

 

hahaha... just a bunch of dumb fucks with more money than brains..

 

Good, after all 65 K IS alot of money

 

They make contact's for stupidity??

Doc.

 

Not in this hobby!

 

He had already sold it to someone else for more money then what it brought , He was hoping it wouldn't bring more money then what he sold it for!!

 

whaddaya talkin about???

 

In the B-J world, yes it did sell cheap @ 65K (+ 6.5K buyers fee). I'm sure the previous oners ass is still pretty chapped today.

At auction, anything is only worth what two people think it is worth. Last night, 72.5K is what the winner decided it was worth.

Now lets be realistic, at least in the blue collar world and todays economy, 72.5K is one hell of a lot of money for any car, let alone one with somewhat limited driveability. Not to mention, if you wanted a recreation of the Punk with perhaps a little more room in it and had 72.5K burning a hole in your pocket it could be done for about the same amount as it brought last night

Aaron should be proud, short of maybe getting a diecast company to do a scale model, he has marketed the Punk in most every imaginable way and gotten a tremdous amount of publicity out of his creation. Let's face it, the Punk certainly helped put him on the map. The 'coupe de grace' for Aaron has to be the trip to B-J.
So Aaron, bro, how are you going to top this one?

 

???

 

You shameless HUSSIE!!!

 

I just hope the new owner appreciates the hard work,thought,passion, and design as much as we do.

 

I thought the coupe de grace was the trip to the playboy mansion!

 

You sure?

"The expression coup de grâce means a death blow intended to end the suffering of a wounded creature."

 

Them bonehead announcers were calling it a super stocker.

 

That kart was built by Steve Davis' son-in-law. You gotta know they would milk that cow till it was dry.

 

LOL! How about "the most fun you could have with a car"!
