A Little Wonder

[Steve Sears]

Kent,
The seller contacted me a while back, asking how much it was worth (common 
question....answer: Whatever somebody will pay for it).  The first run at 
eBay in early November ended up around $4,500 with the reserve not met. 
Looks like an interesting project for the adventurous - and not 
cash-strapped - Audi fan.  Parts are available through some sources in 
Germany and eBay.de  The most interesting part of the whole deal is that the 
seller says that the car does run - that's a major step as many 2-strokes 
that sit idle for extended periods end up seized ("ran when parked years 
ago" ~ engine stuck solid now).  There's been a couple interesting vehicles 
on evilBay recently - last week there was a lot of 9 Deeks for sale, with 
one being a very rare period fibreglass kit car based on a DKW 3=6 - 
designed by Howard "Dutch" Darrin.  The lot went for less than $1k.
Cheers!
