Maybe the new owner, whoever that winds up being, will want you two to sign the car since you are famous now!

BTW - I checked out both cars as N vs S. Very clean!

I guess at this point we need to have a competition to guess the final bid price.

My guess, $53,500.

But I know if it were my car, that wouldn't be enough, especially with how long you've owned the car.

Less than a day to go, I see some fakers pulled their bids.

Will she meet the reserve? Will it have a normal last-minute Ebay price jacking?

Congrats Todd! I could see it in your eyes what this car means to you, glad to know you will not be parted from it. Both of you put on THE BEST pinks show, glad it also had a happy ending after all.

Pinks has always been, continues to, and will always be a joke. They'd be better off just concentrating on the racing, and leaving the (fabricated) drama to the soap operas, lol. It was a great show, too bad all that hyped up drama was for nothing.

Glad he gets to keep his car, its definitely a nice car.

That seems a little fishy don't ya think??? 41,900 with a 42k min. reserve...so it wasn't worth the extra 100?

Sure if I can put a reserve on it for more than someone would buy it from me in the first place...sounds like a win/win to me.

Like I said great episode but the contract stuff was bs...no two ways about it...it worked out good for you guys though I can't knock that!

I think most of the bidders just wanted to say they bid on it,I guess. Everyone knew the reserve was 42k thats why it was hanging at 41,900.

Im glad you got to keep the car. Unless Todd is a oscar worthy actor you cant fake the expressions on his face. You could tell he loves that car. Best episode ever. Its saved on my DVR. I still have friends coming over to watch it who missed it. Great job guys and Im glad it all turned out right in the end.
