    The HQ has been for sale for ages with an asking price of 99K, That said, it looks to have been tidied up a little since I last seen it.
    The HJ has a Statesman 308 engine number. Obviously the better of the two being windowless, factory 308, Turbo 400 but the HQ has more value in it in the long run due to rarity, matching numbers and books.

    Yeah I've seen it online for a while... still on Carsales now at $84k

    It will be interesting to see how it goes with no reserve. Has he got a "mate" that buys it if its going too cheap?

    Yeah, bids from the rafters. It'll be interesting to see the end result.

    Ends tomorrow

    Yellow HQ currently $38,750 with moderate bidding activity, someone bumped it $12,500 in a single bid when most were smaller increments??

    Hj has been very popular with steady "regular" increments, currently $70,000

    Remember 9.9% buyers premium is added at end

    HQ $45,000 well short of the $84,0000 they were asking on carsales and AMCS etc. Will be interesting to see if those ads are still there much longer??

    HJ $81,000 so nearly $90,000 factoring in buyers premium

    Both sales prices I think were about market value.
    It's a good optioned clean HJ and the HQ needs a ton of money spent on it.
    I'm with you on the HQ advertisement....

    Yeah and here

    The cynic in me says they paid their $4,800 "buyers" fee plus sellers commission? If they get what they're after elsewhere they're still in front.

    A classic transport mob posted cars they shifted from the auction...no yellow van. Happy to be corrected, but this one has always seemed different
