Very nicely done and strong price.

DonMuscles bought it!?

Just wait until it reappears with cowhide headliner!!!

 

[Alphabettispaghetti]

I think it was expensive and possibly one of the many 'blips' BAT generates?

Be interesting to see what this goes for .........

Tough one! Given the other, it should go for $70+ but it’s also not shiny so the superficial buyer will not see the same value?

 

[AD240Z]

I dont think its one for the superficial buyer . There some discussion in the comments about the different camps - on who who do what to it.

Id buy it and leave it in that condition as much as i could . I like it a lot.

As for value - i cant begin to guess . Prices seem to vary so much these days.........

$77,000 is strong money but getting it to that point was not inexpensive.

I think the yellow car will do well for the condition it's in given the thumbs up it is getting from the peanut gallery.

I remember reading somewhere that someone said "you haven't paid too much, you just bought it early"
Something like that which can make a lot of sense in the classic car world given the way the prices keep going up on certain cars.

Remind me a bit of my old yellow series 1. Never painted or welded and immaculate underneath. Only a few years ago it was sold to me for $6800.

$6800 ....... was that a few years as in 10 or just a bargain . Lovely looking cars .............

The BAT one is showing at $24k this morning - latest.

 

[johnymd]

About 3 years ago. End of 2016. I didn’t think it was that cheap back then and was the most expensive 240z I had bought.

$43,490 Final

WOW!!!!!

$43,490 Final

WOW!!!!!

So the days of cheap imported left hookers are drawing to a close?

 

[uk66fastback]

Without going to look, there must have been a few interested in it for it to get that high, surely ... it was nice, and originality is worth money, but still ...

Some of the BAT pricing makes UK cars the 'cheap' option.

However i'm very skeptical about BAT. Very.

I have no idea how BAT works - is it not just an auction site ?

Why so skeptical ?
