Good point, Mike. I see that URL.COM now first directs the seeker to a preview site that lists the original website in all its length and glory. If that site address looks OK, the seeker can continue to the site. Anyway, the pretty yellow '57C coupe has been bid up to $16,111 and not yet met reserve. A safer way of transmitting e-Bay offerings would be to just post the auction number and let the seeker highlight, copy and paste the number into the search box at the e-Bay site. Such as: 120854538075 for this car. I note its paint code is "XXX". Adult content, for sure!

Abbreviated URLs, like TinyURL, are a favorite of the disseminators of viruses, malware, etc. They take the unsuspecting user to a drive-by infected site, where an infection is immediately acquired. Use them with great caution!!!

Repeating Gloria's comments: Hi All, This 300D was for sale on eBay December 2007 with a no sale in CA. Asking price then was $25,000. It was also for sale on eBay in April 2004. Don't know if it was sold at that time or what the reserve was. It looks rough, but restorable with lots of time and money.
