WE need a post on this build in the appropriate spot. Must include a hp number so I can feel superior.....

Yes I got the same email. It still relies on the seller being sensible and actually opening a negotiation with the highest bidder after the auction closes. The highest bidder cannot do this on their own. If they do not then there is no chance of settling an offline deal. That was my experience with the last time I was highest bidder on a Caterham on Bringatwat in 2025.

I've always thought of him as "CMuff"

Zero chance it would ever get plates in the socialist state of New Jersey. The NJ EPA would have a conniption. Its going to be Maine....where I want to retire to.

Ahhh...if you dive into the hundred photos you discover lovely floor mats: Quite elegant. I like the rustic look. Dual cruise controls on the back of the steering wheel is a nice touch: Matches the dual gear shifters Nicely fake background - matches what you would expect for a Cadillac owner. Pity they failed to eliminate the concrete in other photos and replace it with cobblestones These things really were a slab of old Florida. Pity the owner is dead and does not reflect in the side of the car when taking a photo. @wdb Well done - I really needed a good laugh. @JohnCh Why didn;t you tell me you were auctioning off your Cadillac? Did you keep the MAGA cap from the rear parcel shelf?

What am I missing? Need to see the owner for the real evidence of AI photo editing.

Yes this project has demonstrated lots of Artificial Insemination from a number of people over the years.....

This is Cat Kong.

Nope - not at all. Given that color scheme, I would call it Cat Bong

I could very much do the second series of dates July 23/24. The first set of dates might be a problem as I have a 10am conference speech on the 15th in Calgary. Sadly I no longer have a private jet so would need to slum it on a commercial air service to Portland then drive over. I would also need to borrow a car off you Bruce as Caterhams do not work as hand luggage. Maybe a certain green one with carbon wings is available?

For cars under restoration where you are adding value you do need to disclose that 1) the car is not in your normal garage, 2) it is being worked on to restore and 3) How much you are putting into it for increments. For value increases, I have found Hagerty do require proof in the form of comparables. I did docmentary analysis of the market on two of my cars and shared that with them - they agreed there was good reason to increase value and we agreed on a number. Its a bit of work but I think it is a fair way to approach things.

Joke? No I am a devilishly handsome gentleman for which ladies fall over themselves......laughing......at my attempts to be suave and debonair. Almost. I accidentally forget on purpose to post the really good deals as I buy them myself!

No need to complicate thinking on data. Good free to access reference points are here: https://bringatrailer.com/caterham/seven/ or https://bringatrailer.com/lotus/seven-caterham-seven/ There are enough sales at bringatrailer to make a statistical sample and extrapolate predictions from.
