    Seems largely original? Good colors and a 351. With a little love and elbow grease, you could make this a really nice ride.

    $10,500 with one day left. Good price for an unrestored example with wear and tear, but no apparent physical damage. Of course, an in-depth inspection would be necessary.

    Nope. The only Bond flick with an Aussie in the lead role, and the only time Bond married: On Her Majesty's Secret Service, with George Lazenby and Diana Rigg.

    It wasn't one of the better Bond flicks; I had hoped, after Casino Royale, with Daniel Craig, had come out, producers would've produced a remake of OHMSS. Nothing so far.

    I like it. I thought Telly Savalas made a very good Blofeld and Piz Gloria was the ultimate Bond villain lair.
