Dude!
Warn me next time
I almost tossed cookies on my monitor.
First thing I thought when I saw it was 'it came from some direct to video sci-fi movie' but then again they would have blown it up for sure if that were the case.....

Hmm, bidding has ended. Did anybody notice the pictures show a silver car, yet the description states 'exterior color: red'?
Yeah, I was going to comment on that...
I'd say that the car is a *little* on the rare side, and at least they could take a photo of the actual car..
smells like a scam to me !
Heck, I would pay a dollar for that any day.

looks like he mixed interior with exterior. says the interior is silver and the exterior is red in the add.

Looks like an early 70s hot wheels car. If it isn't then it's probably someone's kit car from the late 60s or 70s.
But hey, starting bid was only a buck before they pulled it ;)

The 2 pictures in the photo gallery with guys inside was from the Stanley Kubrick film "Clockwork Orange" I think that's Malcolm McDowell driving.

That car is the "Durango 95" as it was called in " A Clockwork Orange" Alex and his droogs are out for a malenky bit of ultraviolence.

Ah, these youngsters today...... StuK
and his droogs
Yep that's it, and I'm pretty sure it's a kit car like the Bradley GT.

Can't remember anything from back then.

Did anybody notice, next to CLICK TO ENLARGE IMAGE, there's another button AOLERS CLICK HERE?
As a lapsed AOLer, I didn't look to see what it was. But I thought it was funny.
