When you arise in the morning, think of what a precious privilege it is to be alive to breathe, to think, to enjoy, to love.

I owned #149 back in 2017 maybe...
Tony did a nice job restoring it.

It was in a garage in Massachusetts for a very long time ...
And that's where I dragged her home....

I am wondering why they might expect more for it now.  How much will a NOM affect the price?

Seller probably timed the listing so if there are big numbers realized at Mecum or Barrett-Jackson 405K will seem like a bargain.  Seems like there're a lot of 66 dated parts on this one.

When I sold a car on BaT last year, I wasn't able to negotiate a specific start date.  They provided an approximation and I had to keep bugging them to give an exact date and didn't find that out until less than 24 hours from when it went live.

Yes, there is no guarantees on start dates. I was lucky the Corvette I have was put up yesterday, as I was hoping for that possible Mecum/BJ price boost.

For the record - this car sold for $400K.

Yes, interestingly which is $5K less than the high bid in the previous auction where it didn't sell.
