[Roadsters] Chris Bond's Roadster & 510 for sale to listers only

[Mike Harper]

As y'all probably know, Chris Bond passed away recently and since I was a good friend, the family has asked me to help find a good home for his 67.5 SPL (converted to U20 5 speed) and his 1972 510.  

I have set up a page on my web site which will be available only by the link I am providing, with pictures and a description of the cars and the trailer, kindly provided by Lee Ehinger, who drove up to Shelbyville Indiana to look at the cars for us.  Chris wanted these cars to go to Datsun enthusiasts if at all possible, so I am posting this to the Datsun Roadster AUTOX.TEAM.NET list.  I am not a member of the 510 list, so if someone would be nice enough to post this there, that would be great.  Also, if someone who is active on the 311s.org forum would do the same there, it would be helpful, so we can get the word out to our entire community.

This is not a commercial venture, I am doing this for the family for free.

We decided a timed auction would be the best way to get the most money for the family, while giving the community a chance to bid & buy if they wish.  I will be taking bids at my private e-mail address roadsterdude1600 at yahoo.com until midnight on 11/22/2008, and I will put the successful bidders in touch with Chris's brother, Victor Bond to arrange payment and pick up in Shelbyville Indiana where the cars and the trailer are located. I will update the page once each day with the current "high bids" on the items.  If there is a lot of competition, I will also contact the interested bidders as the sale is coming to a close.  We can play that part by ear.

Victor has set some reserve prices which are posted.  If for some reason those reserves are not met, I will give him the names of the interested parties below the reserves, and let him take it from there.
