Well George Barris is a legend..(as we know).. But he didn't build it. Tribute car, but it is pretty cool..
Seller has no rep (0) sales.. That's not encouraging !!!
Hate to sell it, but for 50K opening bid he may !! Wonder what the reserve is ?

He is/was a member here. Way back, he was invited by another member to attend a g2g and he wanted $500+ room and board! He;s been trying to sell that thing for at least a year. Last time he got PO'd when no one would give him as much as he wanted. BTW, this is also the first I've ever seen it related to Barris, though he did say he had some Barris autographs. What exactly is a "George Barris Sanction Tribute Build SEMA Show Car"? He never mentioned that in any of his posts here. Mostly he bragged about getting everything free. Might have even been a Featured HHR here too!

Top bid was for $55K but I passed. Certified Kruse International Auction appraisal was at $135K. Since the history & documentation this vehicle has (IE: George Barris Kustoms. Thom Taylor Rendering. SEMA. C.E.S. ISCA. NCCA. etc) and it being a buyers market, I will wait to sell. Not sure if it will bring $135K, but I know it will bring allot more then $55K. Thank you & everyone else for asking.

Yea, I'm sorry but there is no way ANY HHR is worth $135,000! $50K, yea, maybe........
What did Barris actually have to do with this car? And since he got everything for free, why does he have to sell it to do another car, won't it be free too? ROTF!!
