It would have to be filmed so they could use it for the show when it gets redone. Episode 1 "The Truckstock repair crew goes to work"

Ok. So a bunch of us should chip in, buy it, restore it, and donate it to a museum. We could have someone film a documentery of the process, and *maybe* get our money back from the proceeds.

Yeah, I'm dreaming over here.

Dude, what's your point? You don't like it? You don't think it's worth that much? Fine, you've said so. Over and over. We don't really care what you think.

I took care of it for you.
I do wonder what his reserve is? I have a hard time seeing someone pay the $20+K for that truck. I guess you just have to find the one right person. It's just such a big piece of memorabilia. That limits your audience.

There is one day left to the auction.....
It hasn't budged much since the first bid.

Any guesses how it could end?

I'm betting it will go to $25k, but won't meet reserve, then will sell offline...
