Would someone be kind enough to pass along the auction result.

I'm lucky enough to have a completely original, unaltered and unwrecked, 47,000 mile, 1984 SEC AMG 6.0 DOHC 32 valve bought new by a dear friend who had it upgraded in Westmont by Hartmut Feyhl

The car was a no-show and did not make the auction block.

Re-reading this thread...the WB sales have skyrocketed since. "Guesstimated" sales pricing was well under $100k at the time.

Based on recent WB sales, is this the $1M Widebody?!
