Don't know if anyone saw this car. It sold very quickly. Gull wing seem to turn up some amazing timepieces-does anyone know how they do it? Several AC's sold recently by them.

Yes, I know how they do it. They have ads running in several magazines and old car websites here in the U.S. saying they need cars. They don't say what for, but it gets them a lot of calls. And they buy them, then resell them.

I guess they must be advertising in country living & other such genre where the sellers of such vehicles might likely catch the advert. I certainly know that's where my wife would see it.

Gullwing has landscapers and pool boys looking out for cars too. It's all about the network.
   
   They did ok on the completely crusty 300 SL Gullwing at Gooding in Scottsdale...
