    I've wondered if there is a magic combination of proper frame size and seat construction/positioning that can make things more comfortable?

    The pattern seem to be either a) steady bidding followed by mad frenzy, or b) a first wave of bids-a bit of quiet-then a second wave at the end. The fact that BaT keeps on extending the 2 minute window at the end if a new bid is posted has changed the the whole old style poaching strategy. Might as well wait rather than show your hand though a big statement bid can scare folks off (for example if the next bid is $10k).

    You've got several bidders all within range of each other, and the ti supporters are saying good things. Second wave should be fun. 

    Meanwhile we can wonder if the seller with the 1957 BMW 507 is worried over waiting to break $2 million?

    Hang in there. The idiots will crawl out from under their rocks as the auction progresses.

    It was crazy in some of the e30M3 auctions earlier this year. If you’d click on the user names of the biggest trolls with their “expert” opinions most had never bid in an auction or put something up for auction. It got so bad that BaT finally started deleting and banning posts from some of them.

  13. GONE: e30 4.10 open differential, small case

    So another year has come and gone and this small case old open 4.10 diff is still sitting in my garage untouched.

    For 2020: FREE to whoever wants it...but you have to come get it.

    The perfect solution for winter boredom: rebuild it on the off chance someone wants an open diff, hours of entertainment and much better than a cheap cardboard puzzle on your kitchen table, a throwaway unit to practice your diff welding skills, use it for feats of strength with your friends (annual WI Bimmers diff toss competition??), avoid embarrasing calls to AAA or EMTs and use it instead of your car or rocks in your pockets to test whether the ice is safe on a lake, help someone avoid getting this lump as a secret Santa gift.

    In short, the possibilities are endless.

    LOL. Between this and finally selling the Tundra door it was a good week. 

    Makes me wonder what else I've got sitting around from old FS posts /CL ads. I do still have that old e30 small case output shaft leaking noisy 4.10 open diff with 250k+ (free).... and m42b32's old painted bottlecaps with ancient tires that for some reason still hold air ($40). 😁
