Nice looking #'s matching car optioned exactly how I would have ordered one back in the day. Cowl hood and tach were added but I would have added them too.

Pretty much the same as the one you finally got last year, no?

Pretty similar Bill, mine has a saddle bench seat interior and no power steering. The saddle interior has really grown on me but I definitely would have ordered one with black interior back in the day if I'd have been around back then. The BAT car shouldn't have radio which I think is cool as hell too. But that damn master cylinder...

I registered with BAT to go after this car. But yeah, that master cylinder gave me some pause along with a few other issues. Now I see there are some interesting comments from the previous high bidders. I'll likely sit this one out.

'Interesting comments' seem to be commonplace on BaT auctions

No truer statement than that Bill. The peanut gallery is usually from non-bidders. It was just odd to see them from high bidders.

That’s why I’ll never list a car there.

My own website where comments are not allowed LOL and sYc where it’s an ad and not a discussion forum. As it should be

I think that was the goal of one of the high bidders, to scare off bidders.
