I'd say good luck!

I've got both of the black ones that I got at a garage sale for 25 cents each.  What is he smoking/drinking and why isn't he sharing?

I don't even need to look at the auction... he has been trying to sell that for months claiming it is a "prototype" or something like that, but has no paperwork or anything to back it up.  He is a scam artist and anyone who buys that car is an idiot............ watch the seller is a member here..... opps

and I don't think that it is the craziest that I have seen.  What about that guy selling the old kodak poloroid shots of Smokey and the Bandit for $7,000?  You guys remember that one?

Wait a minute! Both of these auctions say they are for the black and grey car at the bottom of the picture for 2 different prices!

The one Lomilita first posted - http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&viewitem=&ru=http%3A%2F%2Fsearch.ebay.com%3A80%2Fsearch%2Fsearch.dll%3Ffrom%3DR40%26satitle%3D250094560888%26fvi%3D1&item=250094560888&rd=1

And the one Eroc is talking about - http://cgi.ebay.com/RARE-HOT-BIRD-PROTOTYPE-78-TRANS-AM-BLACK-GRAY_W0QQitemZ250086921454QQcategoryZ2503QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

I doubt it. I just don't see it being a "prototype"

Yep, remember it well -- in fact, I think I saved off the JPG files he posted just because it was so dumb... ::)

I will have to check my collection, but I am pretty sure I have one that looks just like his blue car.  So much for being rare......idiot.
