I don't think I'll be on live TV because they are auctioning my dad's Mini Cooper in the afternoon on Thursday. But, who knows, maybe it will show up on the highlights. Ill be up on stage helping sell the car.

Im back in Tucson right now, but driving back up there tommorrow and will probably spend the rest of the week up in Scottsdale. Wish it was a bit warmer, but having a great time! Ill post up some pics during the week.

 

kewlness



Good luck on the auction

 

So does your dad own 7ent? The guys on the mini forum speculated the car might fetch 30k.

 

My dad split from his partner (who bought his stake out) at 7ent. There was stuff going on, don't really want to go into it on a public forum, but it was best thing for my dad to do.



I honestly have no idea how much itll get. There was one a few years back that was no-where near as nice than went for over 40. You never know though. Im not even goign to venture a guess, just going to enjoy the experience.

 

Gotcha, I almost always order parts from 7ent if I'm in a jam. Well its a nice car, I'll be restoring my pickup to the same theme sooner or later.

 

Looks like it sold for 32k...or 35k as listed on BJ website so I'm told. Congrats to your dad.

 

yah! 35k seems like a fair price actually

 

I was there! Just got back an hour ago!



Didnt see the mini though

 

It was a lot of fun. Very very cold and miserable though. At least it didnt rain when it was up for auction. Saw some really nice cars, wish I had a poop load of money to spend on cars. Ill post up some pictures when i get them off my camera. Though, I didnt take that many, it was too cold to fumble with the camera and take a ton of pictures.

 

Lol, everyone knows you sell cars when it's been raining because it hides bad paint and scratches!
