Interesting question.

From the eBay Australia terms and conditions ( http://pages.ebay.com.au/services/registration/reg-confirm.html ):

This Agreement shall be governed in all respects by the laws of the State of New South Wales, Australia.

Depending on your state, you may or may not successfully argue improper venue.

Also, depending on your state, the plaintiff may be required to show if he wishes to sue in your jurisdiction.

I would be concerned about a scam first of all. Has the winner attempted to make payment?

Secondly, is this car even legal to register/drive in the US? A lot of Australian cars are not due to emission requirements. I'm sure if you could, a lot of Americans would be driving some of those funky utes you blokes have.

edit: That and the whole "right hand drive" nonsense you got going on.
