Yeah, this one must’ve been a few days old before it was posted because I missed it as well. I was too busy preparing for and doing the track day yesterday.

Oh well, it’ll help tighten things up a bit.

Good luck, All!

Always has to be one Price is Right guesser

The auction does seem quiet but like linderpat said the action doesn't usually start until near closing.

Sold to the lowest bider at $41,251.. congrats Nein Elf!

I think with the original motor this would have been a low 50s car; the shop that messes up the motor then rebuilds it, but it's no Raby-build.
That's what kept the real money away, perhaps..

9elf FTW - congrats on #1. Roadie nailed it on the analysis - the motor probably scared people away, which is unreasonable I think. Oh well, someone got a good driver at a decent price.

Congrats Nein Elf!
I’m blaming PowderJunkie for his high guess that cost me my winning bid . If he’d gone low I’d be looking at win #3 lol.

Maybe it was the color. I don’t believe a rebuilt motor from a reputable shop is a negative. The buyer got an amazing deal.
Congrats @Nein Elf!

Thanks everyone. It was a guess, not very scientific.

Do I assume correctly that I am to choose the next BAT auction?

I'll use my winner's prerogative. This is a super low mile enigma wrapped in a riddle if I ever saw one.

"FEQUENTLY” FORGOTTEN RULES
1--->$250 minimum bid spread
2--->Bids must be placed 48 hours before auction ends. One "mulligan" late guess per person if you forget
