If she is under 30, sweet, and beautiful, then we may have a deal.

I already have an R0 MM Stinger. But I am looking for a Page Black Beauty. Not for a straight up trade though. You have a Page Blackie?

I'm happy to have been a member of the 90s mega top club (for a very brief time). Im the original owner of this late '94 known through the years as Brockburst II. For many years it was featured as the wallpaper for all the Vintage World ads. I bought it new in Dec. '94 for 4K, had Tom Murphy refinish it to the brockburst color and then sold it a few months later for about 5K... I thought I did real well, until I heard it sold again pretty quickly for about 12K!

Wow. Interesting story. I did not know you owned it. At some point Rob owned it, didn't he? The big tops definitely bring the money!

BTW, sorry I didnt realise I was posting on a for sale post, didnt mean to hijack.... I know it was owned by Ganzler at one point and I am SO bad with names, is it Rob that owns it now?.... I had an opportunity to buy it back at one point, just couldnt afford it... maybe some day....

I don't think Rob owns any of the 90s big tops any more.
