Up for auction on eBay is the original BJ and The Bear passenger side door
that was removed from the #1 Kenworth K100 Aerodyne used in the hit 70's TV series.
According to the seller, the door was removed during the restoration of this truck. The door is well used and would really only be good for hanging on your shop wall as a display piece. The door shell has no glass or internals but is still wearing its original paint and "Billie Joe McKay" decal from the show. This would be a great addition for any TV prop collector or a Kenworth collector. This would also look nice hanging up in a Kenworth Dealership or repair shop.
The seller says, "This item is for a serious collector only. Stuff like this very rarely comes up for sale. This is your chance to own a piece of television history. Again, this auction is for the passenger door shell only and will come with a COA."
I never watched BJ and The Bear, but if you were a fan you'll want to click the link in the first paragraph to learn more.
Bidding is up over 3K and the reserve hasn't been met - 37 bidders. Since I'm TV challenged, I have no clue what even the premise of this show was, but I'll bet it involved a Kenworth!

The bidding has to be seen to be believed. Who knew that BJ and the Bear was so popular. They ought to think making the movie version.
