GMC - Noel Clarke auction

[GMC]

In an effort to expand the Noel Clarke fund I have decided to put up a GMC expansion chamber for auction.
The GMC-bay auction is simple.
You can bid by merely posting on this thread the amount you wish to pay & model you would like.
This way all bids will be open for everyone to see.
The auction will finish at midnight 31 October.
Naturally the starting price will be $1.00  
Now, while someone may have the opportunity to buy a pipe for a dollar it’s going to be real embarrassing to be forwarding a cheque to the Noel Clarke fund for only $1.00, so if you have ever thought about buying a pipe from me now is the time to do it. Or if you know someone that may want a pipe but doesn’t visit the forum then let them know, maybe even bid on their behalf.
A chamber with postage normally retails for $440.00
Every dollar bid will go to the fund and I will even throw in the postage to anywhere in Aust. Hell, I will even throw in the postage to NZ if someone in NZ wants to bid. Our members from other countries are welcome to bid also but we will need to “haggle” out a postage deal.

GMC Geoff Morris Concepts is not a shop as such (although I am adding more products all the time) but a manufacturer. Most parts are built to order. The winning bidder will be required to pay within a reasonable time from the auction end and an allowance of a few weeks will be required for delivery as I won’t be able to build the nominated pipe until after the auction end.

Auction is not open to employees of GMC or their family members. Judges decision will be final; no correspondence shall be entered into.

The auction, which is a subsidiary of OZVMX-bay will be for a expansion chamber for any of the following models…..

Too cool Geoff. What a great idea to help support Noel .  What a great opportunity to get the pipe you always wantedand help Noel as well......Can I bid as well Geoff?

[GMC]

Can I bid as well Geoff?

Sure, unless theirs a scandal in the family & we are related

Doesn't matter where the money comes from (legally of course ), we just need to reach the target.

Can't wait to see what these snipe bids bring in

[Freakshow]

83/84 500 CR Husky pipe

Nice work Geoff , your a champion bloke and master craftsman

The gate has dropped & their off.
Firko has been caught out, still pushing from the pits, he looks up in disbelief as everyone takes off without him. Many others caught out in the pits still putting their boots on, they look on in shock at the pace being set.
Noel gets good drive out of the gate but immediately tangles with Paul
Oldfart sweeps nicely around the outside of both of them, jumping into a comfortable lead.
090 lurks at the back of the pack, pacing himself for a strong come from behind finish, but has he misjudged the run-away speed of the others.
Wait, whats this, that wild & crazy young kid from Yass has dived under everyone in the second corner. Jumping into a deep rut, he has a bit of a bobble mid corner but exits well in front. He‘s eyes bulging wide, he can feel victory, he can smell victory, he can taste victory. No, it was just a bug & he spits it out.
Nathan races off with a comfortable lead, believing he has it in the bag but still wondering if he can hold it to the end. Freaky watches in awe from behind the spectator fence.
Then, out of nowhere, Shoey double jumps over the top of everyone. He safely jumps well clear of everyone in a dominant show of strength. The rest of Team Husky sit in the pits drinking Swedish beer, all quietly confident that no mere mortal could match his pace. Just like Everts at a club day, he toys with the competition.
Will their be any other dark horses in the pack?
Will any one have an answer to the great Shoemeister?
Will Firko restore a Pre 95 model?
Will Doc buy a Honda
Will Harry marry Sally?
Will any one care?
Stay tuned for more trumped up drama
