BACK ON EBAY!

For those interested, the office chair that is made from an actual Ford GT leather sport bucket seat is back on eBay.

A personal thank you to Centerpunch who understood how a 12 year old boy with good intentions and his dad's eBay password can get into a bunch of trouble in a heartbeat. A casual father/ son chat was implemented without permission. But now that the discussion has elevated, I've decided to sell it afterall.

The eBay item number is 330029438292.

The link is: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/e...m=330029438292&ih=014&sspagename=STRK:MESE:IT

This chair belongs in an true aficionado’s home or office, as it's very cool. I have no GT and little space to store it.

Happy bidding!

How did you get ahold of that chair?

How did you get ahold of that chair?

Betcha stuff "falls off trucks" all the time in Detroit.

 

[mustangsally]

How did you get ahold of that chair?

Or just sorta walks away.

 

[dbk]

Yeah, I'm told that one "just walked away" and people wanted to know where it's legs led it...

 

[mustangsally]

And when it got tired, it just took a seat?

 

[MotorsportNick]

Would people really pay for this?

 

[mustangsally]

If you check the ebay listing, apparently someone paid $1800 for something that got "fabricated" after falling off a truck.

Q: Would thier be any way to get 2 chairs?

A: Additional chairs would be very pricy. The carbon fiber GT bucket alone is about $7,400 from the Ford dealership and the bracket/ base/ armrests would push it over the $8,000 mark. Let me know if you are interested. Thanks

From the Q&A on the ebay listing. $7400. for a chair from ford??? :willy :willy

There's a reason this one's cheap, and it's not because it was acquired in any sort of legit manner.
