Could you imagine driving down the road and that happening all of the sudden?!? Hopefully they replaced the driver's seat upholstery while they were at it. :D

I went to take another look yesterday afternoon and the car's gone.

It's back on the lot! And now I can say beyond any doubt that the checkered flag is painted on. There's some bleeding around the edges and a couple spots of over spray. :)

The ebay sale topped out around $5500 but the high bidder didn't meet the reserve so it was a no-sale.
