TerryB 1,365 Posted October 22 One of the links says they agreed to the sale to avoid having to pay storage fees for the cars as the investigation continues. The money from the sale of the autos will be placed into a trust to pay any possible fines. Seems to say they know they have been doing shady business practices.

Zimm63 136 Posted October 22 Wow. Lots to lust over in that sale if you got the $$. Wonder what the story is behind all the white pickups? Business vehicles, as opposed to collectibles? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BucketofBolts 32 Posted October 22 I wonder if the CEO of CHASE bank and all the other banks that sank tens of millions into the PONZI scheme, as well as the CEO of Sherman Williams, and Warren Buffet (who himself got fleeced out of $350 million alone) will attend the classic car auction on October 26th? I would not be surprised to find out that some of these cars have cash secretly placed in the door panels by Jeff Carpoff of DC Solar. The 1930 CORD L-29 for auction looks for a cheap price as does the 1951 Chevy 3100 Thriftmaster truck. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BucketofBolts 32 Posted October 22 Today 10-22-2019 in the $2.5 Billion+ PONZI scheme two conspirators pleaded guilty in the Sacramento Federal Court. Looks like Jeff Carpoff will soon be wearing an orange jump suit. The Sacramento Bee has article that came out few minutes ago about the PONZI scheme and the cars being sold. Some of these cars are WOW factor. The collection is magnificent. The Feds expect to receive over $3 million from the sale. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
