[russel730]

This looks like it it's going to be a real pricey truck. Already at $16k with 5 days left. 15k miles. Pretty impressive.

I really hope Harrison Ford is going to be the new owner because it belongs in a museum.

I'll do you one better. I found this plate on eBay from my truck's original dealer.

[fiatslug87]

Oh yeah? How about this?

[eaglescout526]

I just have the AMC jeep one. Thank you AZ for lettin me run them.

Yep.  Now there's a fine specimen.  Echoing an earlier reply, it's Museum quality.    

[Minuit]

Good options too. Shame about no A/C though.

I thought the same thing... then realized I'd never actually drive it except to a car show so it became less important.   

[russel730]

Up to $19.5k with 8.5 hours left in the auction.

I didn't think any of the comanche's came with a bed light. Was this ever an option?

The cargo light? Yes, it was an option

[robfg67]

$33k with 5 hours to go...bananas!

[Salvagedcircuit]

The gavel went down.

$35,525

Dang.

[Pete M]

and the owner is likely to make money when selling it further down the line.   rare things are rare.  and original old rare things are the rarest of all.

[NHMJXJ]

 

Definitely one for the record books.   

 

[Car Enthusiast]

I say this with all due respect to Comanches

 

People are stupid

A brand new stripped 2wd Tacoma starts at $27k. Maybe it isn’t to crazy.

[Pete M]

you can't compare it to modern car prices.  it's likely an investment.  or it's a passion buy.  lord knows if I had gobs and gobs of money I'd love to have that in my house.

That'd be tough to hang on your wall there Pete.

where there's a will (and a boat load of money), there's a way.   (but I'd rather be able to sit in it now and again)
