Currently there's one bid on it.
Seems to be someone in the same area as the car looking at their bid history.
They also bid on a lot of cars/engines/motorbikes/etc according to their bid history - could possibly be someone on here? If it is itd be nice to know so other people dont bid!

As you said, itll probably go a bit higher than the current bid, and I hope your dad can be persuaded! Haha
