That's what we are looking at. As a feed update, I want to have the auction updated that the A/C work was done or the tires are replaced before the end. That should bump it and keep it fresh.

Just a thought, just replace the tires and fix anything that isn't working if you expect top money, then it's a no excuses turn key car, the add almost reads that way

The recent Panoroma mag shows the prices are up on the nice, non-hacked up and correctly repaired 928's too

What did the AC work entail? Just a top up? If it did, might want to keep that out of the description.

I agree, I don't like the Wilhoit house pics either but the public does and you want to apeal to the public.

How does bring a trailer work? Do they verify the bidders? What happens if they don't pay? Just curious...

Cheap money is fueling the bubble in prices but with money cheap why not buy a 928?

Here is the current rate for collector car financing,

Yep. It has the red boge and three blue dots on the rear Springs. The front Springs are some other combination, I forgot right now.

I didn't see it in your write up, with that option this car hits all the marks. I'd add it in!

In regards to Willhoit's pictures - that IS his house.

GLWS, btw, your car is beautiful and I hope you get top dollar!

They have a CC on file for all bidders - when you win a car, they immediately charge the CC a % so there's skin in the game for backing out. I have used them for a couple cars and have been more than happy with the result.

Two cars I have sold on BAT:

The MR2 was sold before they changed to the auction format. Wish it had been an auction as there was tons of interest in the car - my email blew up with guys trying to buy that car.

Some strong numbers! Nice! I bet a dealer buys it and we see it market up another $10k?

I think the odds of that happening are very good.

This has been a fun one to watch and am very glad to see BC get one done and up on the auction block. Well done buddy.
