I hate that ebay allows things to just be pulled by the seller. Stuffs all the bidders around.
Still, what can ya do!
Yes, I agree Tony - once there are bids the auction should be able to conclude unless there's a very good published reason otherwise.

The odd thing I saw was there were 3 bids listed but it was still sitting at the original starting price. Incidentally I wasn't bidding on it!

The cab looks to be a coach built a one off, the doors and roof are different to a PMG conversion.

Possibly one of the most desirable things was the relatively rare 1943 'FORD' stamped front shell (as opposed to no-name or FORD CANADA) and really nice mudguards.

Did someone from MLU manage to buy it?
