Yah, $81k. That was fun to watch for about 20 minutes. Those 2 guys must belong to Leno’s club. More money than brains.
Yeah, the $81,000 bid was from Rizkash11. I think he's that Nigerian prince who's been sending all those "You're the Big Lottury Winner - send me $1,000 to recieve yur check" notifications. 
That's nuts!
alot of those "high bidders" end up negating the deal
Seller said the reserve was met at $74000
I'd like a, approximate price on that motor and trans setup, then I can set my dreams accordingly on a motor swap. :-)
I read where Greg said $15k motor, $5k trans, and $5k wheels.
Roy from Cloud 9 Classics, sells a lot of Speedsters, he and Troy probably compete on finding used ones to resell.
If you missed this and want one with a T4 Raby engine - Rich D/PepeSpeed's red Beck is available for near 1/2 that price at Beck web site -
Engine:
This BECK is the epitome of a “no expense spared” build. The engine alone cost nearly $25K from Raby. 2,666cc’s, 175hp on the dyno. Stroke =80mm, Bore= 103mm,, 48mm intake valves, 38mm exhaust, 48mm Dellorto DRLA carbs, twin plug engine using eight NGK2145 plugs.
The ignition system is an HPV-1 from Electromotive Engine Controls. It is crank fired with no distributor. This engine runs on 92-93 Hi-Test fuel, no additives required.
The price of cars right now is like watching the real estate market when it took off and a house went from 50¢ to a buck in the same year and your looking saying to yourself what in the world just happened.
