13 bids so far, and absolutely no description or provenance shown.
Didn't even claim "Fischer" built.
Yeah, it's sort of nice..if you can live with no doorway in the end of the car.....but not half a grand nice.

It is truly amazing what some people consider collectable or a "must have" item.

Another car from the last Stout Seacrest auction ....guessing it is also a Corbin built car ...which is probably rarer than Fischer ...and two folks in the world really wanted it and were willing to pay for it .
When Stout grouped a huge number of cars together in a lot the photos show no detail ....so internet bidders would only be guessing as to identity of a piece.... those in the room bidding have that up front close bidding advantage to examine individual pieces .
The seller on ebay bought many large group of Seacrest pieces and has done well selling them off individually.... the detailed ebay photos give a much clearer idea what the piece is ....
capitalism at it best .
