Ok, so who has bought it?? Anyone on here? I had a maximum bid on it, wonder how much it went for??

It says it ended unsold. I would contact the seller if you think you had a bid on it. The listing says it will be broken for parts if not sold!

I contacted him immediately on seeing the cancellation e mail, its definitely been sold!.

There is soooo much work there! You would have to be a bit mental to take that on!

Those are type of people that we like!

it is pretty bad but i'm sure it will be saved

This has just ended, bidding rocketed to 2850 pounds !

Slighty more reasonable than the £13.8k for the one at Beaulieu!

So who won it then? It certainly was'nt me!

i was close till the end still on bid

but for me was it a little bit to expensive had my persnel max on 2400

if have also than the transport for more than 1000 pounds to the NL

that makes the total to hy for me

but hope that it has gone to one of the club members

hilbert

I bid around your price area too. I also wonder who has it!

Hi

I was watching the auction but they was out of my league. As I also live in Holland I did arrange shipping. Using Uship.com I had an offer for GBP 400. for door to door delivery.
Some how my e-bay alert on the hornet didn´t come through so I never had the opportunity to bid on the car. Didn´t find out until I was reading this forum on Sunday evening! The war chest was sufficient to top the final bid.
I also contacted with the original seller of the car. Interesting how the car was sold outside the auction. He does regret it now.

Hopefully another one will surface one day and we all have another go

regards

Bob

very strange but it seems to be back again:

Probably wants to get £14k for it this time!

Maybe he or who ever is selling it was bidding it up,or had a friend doing it,as now you can not tell if it is a legitimate bidder

and now it seems to have gone again!

Nothing to do with me. I e mailed the seller to buy, got no reply....

I put in an offer in the morning and then at 15-sep-11 15:35:31 CEST the car was withdrawn again.

I wonder what is going on

Being greedy perhaps. (notice they have only sold/bought 20 items, maybe inexperienced on ebay?)

I was selling it, first buyer was a timewaster so i re-listed it yesterday and it sold within an hour or so to a lovely couple that tried to buy the one at Beulieu but were outbid.
They are going to fully restore it whatever the cost, they have been looking for a Heinz 57 for years.

Sorry to upset you there. I didnt realise you were on the forum, your title does not give us a clue!

No offence taken, im new on here anyway, had loads of elfs and hornets previously, including another heinz 57 that needed restoration (sold that to a couple from California)
Only just discovered this site

Not very fair on other bidders though is it when you pull an auction and sell outside of Ebay, maybe better to list it as a classified ad. Was the car you were searching for on here to reshell the Heinz into ? I noticed you bough one and are selling already through Ebay.
