The Owl's Head Transportation Museum in Maine is having their annual auto auction this weekend.  There's a '66 vert coming up on Sat. that's apparently being highly touted.  Does anyone know the car/details.

I don't own the cars but I've looked at their actions online before.

Looks like an older MCA concours restoration... when owners loaded them up with changes/accessories.

My bad on the t-black-too many other things on my mind.  So it seems as if the car never made it to Maine?  It's now being advertised on the MS website as being listed on BAT.  Strange.

One of my auction tracking sites is showing it being sold at the Owl's Head Transportation Museum auction on 8/23 for $50,000 hammer price plus 15% buyer premium.

It is, however, still on the MS Classic Cars web site as of today, unpriced. It does not appear on BAT as this is written. Perhaps the MSCC web site has not yet been updated.

I may be wrong, but I believe the car you believe sold at Owl's Head was actually a '65 GT.  I'll verify from the result's sheet when I have a minute.
