I was at Harbor Freight and as I was leaving I saw a black SEC drive
in. Got to my car and it was parked next to me, young kid in it, so I
talked to him. It was a 500SEC, kinda rough, paint was gone, but the
kid said it was his dad's and the dad gave it to him. He was gradually

Should have sold for over $100k. Not bad, though. I’ll bet the seller bit their
nails off the last few hours though. That’s a big gap from $57k to $95k in just
3-4 hours.

Lot of detail stuff was questionable, like some broken knobs, nonfunctional
choke, etc. Easy fixes that tell me someone was being lazy.
It did look nice, however. I just think there were a number of things that
could have been addressed before the sale that would have made it nicer.
