If you watch that item to the end of the auction you might be surprised at what it may sell for. I purchased an NHRA class winner Wally on Ebay 2 years ago and ended up paying around $400 for it. At that time someone was selling several of them and the first one I bid on I went to $250 and didn't get it.

My reason for buying it was for a memorial for my friend and fellow S/ST racer Reuben (Buffy) Shiflett who passed away back in 2009. Being in the business of making and selling grave stones, I puchased a granite container for his ashes to be placed in, replaced the metal plate on the front of the Wally with a plate I got from a trophy shop with his name, competition # and class designation. I mounted it to the top of the granite box and his wife has it sitting on the mantle at home.

Hey Dan Moore, you're #1.

RIP Mark Graham

If you read Dan's last article he said things are tough, he was even driving a snow plow so I can understand why he is selling stuff. 2011 will be a tough year for everyone with the gas prices headed to god knows where.

He may as well sell them. Really, what are they good for? Can't buy parts with them.
Ditto ironmen.

Certainly The Old Man....even Chumlee....from Pawn Stars... would be quite excited to own this level of American memoribilia.

I sold some about 7 years ago. Broke my heart to do it but when you are building a comp car, it's either have some nice shelf ornaments or keep racing. I chose to keep racing.

This particular auction is for an IHRA Iron Man. I guess that just goes to show how much sentimental value Dan places on an IHRA Iron Man.

It looks like most of his other auctions for NHRA Wallys are either from class or divisional wins.
