I like root beer brown. My first vehicle ever was a Taco 100 minibike. Years later I got a 1974 BMW 2002 with an automatic transmission (yuk) on a trade in and sold it to the first guy who looked at it after a couple repairs and adding a tachometer. Then years later got another 1974 BMW 2002 (auto) from a local eBay listing that didn't sell.

I get a brain cramp trying to figure out a way to convince myself that I really, really need such a beautifully ugly and expensively useless thing.

Thanks for the kind words from all, Still hoping it sets a record for price. Has over $50k in new parts on it, and I have over 2000 hours of labor into it!

Get off my lawn!

It is a cool toy that most every man wants. I have as much use for it as I would a circus tent.
It would be a fun thing for Cars and Coffee. Good luck on the auction. I will not be biding.
