Nice George, all I can say is it looks functional. I seem to remember that we had info on the company that made the chassis.
Not a big starting price but it does have a reserve which he will not disclose.

Can't believe Bill Benton has not seen this. Figured he is one of the bettors. Did the engine sound kinda flat or does it have so much torque that he doesn't need to rev it to screaming range? The parts list sounds impressive. I'd bet Bills 1180 might help it a little  ;)
