I agree that is a extremely safe bet.

No where near IMO enough pictures to base any careful opinion of. Of course you don't want to buy a car based on just what is shared on an auction site or sale site alone.  Way too much not shared and seen in this example. Make good choices if your considering any car that is for sale at a distance.

Site does not show it or if it sold - didn't see any language about if there was a reserve or not. Last number I saw was around $15? this afternoon. Sure someone with some time will turn up with the final information.

I believe it was bid to $165,000, as that's what was shown as the final amount when auction was ended. I assume it was a 'no sale' as sold cars on that site are marked as such.

about right $165,000 as they say the bid goes on, on this particular Cult Car...the real ones!

IF the $165,000 was accepted, would it have been a well Bought Car or a well Sold Car?

Fantastic question !

The answer is "that depends"

You did buy a "real one" and you did buy a "cult car" the 1966 GTH one of a thousand or so

The rest is up for discussion

Many either build up or tear down a vehicle to their view or advantage

my personal opinion at a quick glance would be a well bought car at that number. if all original Body and drivetrain.

Last seen at The Cobra Experience (Martinez, CA.) 8-2022 No mention of original drivetrain. Looked like a very nice driver to me.

Last pictures I've got of 6S1796 were published for last years Barrett Jackson auction.
