On Friday May 17th lot F29 a real nice 65 bamboo cream gran sport 3 speed manual is crossing the block.
Anybody know anything on this car? I might have to get a bidders pass.

It sounds like one that was in KS or OK or somewhere back when I was looking. That car was later for sale on V8 site and EBay. If it?s the same car I have an old picture of it. There can?t be that many Bamboo 3 speed post cars.

If so, it has three of the three things I like.

Not sure but this is the car that used to be farther south and wound up for sale on V8. I have pictures from before this owner when the car was asking about $14k.

This is one of the pictures I have from when it was first for sale. I kind of archived all the cars I looked at or researched back when I was looking for a 65. What state is this plate from? That?s where the car was.

Yes, that’s Jeff Spencer’s former car. Believe he sold it for about $19,000 but that was before the engine compartment was detailed. Nice solid car.

Was he the owner from V8 Jethrobodine or the previous owner? What state is that plate from? It had DE plates when on V8.

Was Lot F29. Bidding went to $40,000 and the seller held on to it. Amazing.

Wow, either the seller is unfamiliar with the market value of these gems or we're the ones with the wrong opinion on market value. Would be nice if prices jumped on these "investments"!
