Andrew-
Send me Pics!!!!
Really!
I'm looking for a 71 to 73 with the goodies, preferably
Fireglo. It doesn't have to be mint...
This could apply to anyone on the forum who's got one...

Ahh, what the heck...
All's fair. I kinda thought my final bid was high for
a Diamondite one. Still interested in one tho...

I woulda shot my eye out anyway....

Maybe I shouldn't feel too bad- I mean, I could always use a 4005.....

That is, unless the 4001 of my desires doesn't turn up......

Yeah-
There are other ones out there-
It's just that dang auction mania...
Still-
I'm in the market for one from that era. I've got a fairly molested one in the process of being restored- but want a better one....

Sometimes you do and sometimes you don't-
Remember the 73 4001FG that went in the beginning of
November. That one had a big bid on it early on and people
gave up on it when they couldn't crack it at $2500....

Just depends on who's out there at the time and who wants it badly enough....
