Looks like a VERY solid purchase IMO.
I nice driver sold at a fair price that will certainly make both parties satisfied for what it is and how it was presented.
I went and seen this car in person. Pictures are of great quality, but car not so much. Unfortunately the seller wouldn't tell me the reserve, he did say he purchased for 200k, so I didn't bid for this reason. The car had rot in the trunk, and the entire paint had "spiderwebbed". Also noticed rust/rot in other places. At 135k I guess it was a good deal if you wanted a driver and had no plans to restore it.
...and thats why you should have a look at potential purchases.
BaT is fun to watch though

I'm sorry everyone my mistake I thought this was on the Legend Lime gt500kr that just sold on BAT. That is the car I went and seen in person.

The previous owner? Advertised the car as being in a barn for 20 plus years
History history history
I was there when #2559 was restored in Glendale, AZ., in the 1990's. I know all the details about the restoration. Almost bought it before my friend, Kerry W. purchased it. Also, I drove 2559 in a local parade with Miss Arizona on the back seat (another interesting story).
